not the least of which is his passion for aviation.<span style="mso-spacerun:
yes"> </span>Last week, Adam had a chance to combine his love of flying
with his desire to help out with the Haitian relief effort, by flying his 1983
A36 Bonanza for four days -- January 21-24, 2010 -- to help bring medical and
other supplies to Haiti on behalf of the Bahamas Methodist Habitat, a
Methodist-affiliated disaster relief organization based in the Bahamas.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">According to <a href="http://www.theherald-nc.com/front/story/13041.html?story_link=email_msg">this
news story:</a></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top:0in;margin-right:.5in;margin-bottom:10.0pt;
margin-left:.5in">Over the past few years, Bahamas Habitat has used small planes
to deliver supplies to Bahamas Methodist Habitat, a charity. When the disaster
struck Haiti, the group was in a good position to deliver early help, so it put
out a call for pilots, aircraft and donations.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top:0in;margin-right:.5in;margin-bottom:10.0pt;
margin-left:.5in">So far, more than 190 people with aircraft have offered their
help, and Rotary International has helped with funding and the distribution of
supplies in Haiti. More than twenty planes are involved, with more coming,
Armstrong said. . . .</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top:0in;margin-right:.5in;margin-bottom:10.0pt;
margin-left:.5in">And though the small aircraft don't hold a candle to the
cargo capacity of their big brothers, they can hopscotch through small airports
in Ohio, Florida and Georgia to pick up supplies. In Haiti, the planes can
reach tiny airstrips where larger craft might have trouble.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top:0in;margin-right:.5in;margin-bottom:10.0pt;
