Call For GA Pilots/Aircraft for Haiti Earthquake Airlift

[Ernie Martin]

Two points.

1. I believe that Roger's message deals with SIDs. Perhaps Larry can move it (and this one) to one of the SID threads.

2. Roger's last point, about Cessna 172 operators, suggests that there may be benefits to an even more wholesale consolidation of all these SID threads. There are now so many of them that understandably readers may be missing points made on other SID threads. Specifically, Cessna 172s are not subject to SIDs unless in Part 121 operations, a point I made on the thread entitled "AV Web SIDS Article 12-24-09", where I pointed out that the FAA's Final Rule on SIDs clearly specifies that they apply only to Part 121 operations and multiengine Part 129 and 135 operations (see http://edocket.access.gpo.gov/2002/pdf/02-30111.pdf).

You can't operate a C-172 on a Part 121 certificate.

Turns out it is really hard to move 1 message, within a thread.
The only things I can do are delete, and repost, but then it wouldn't be from me.
I did merge all the SID threads.
Back to Haiti

I heard yesterday that the medical evac flights to the US have been suspended. Anyone know more?
What about the private stuff that people like Paul and Mary are doing. They can't haul a Haitian refugee, unless that person has a passport and visa, right. I read that on one of the FAST bulletins.

On the news last night, it was stated that evac flights were suspended because no one could determine who was going to fund the medical/surgical and recovery efforts. I guess that Florida was a popular destination for the refugees, but the Governor asked the Feds for money, and some one up the line said "What?"
