Has anyone done flight into Haiti for relief work (or otherwise?!)

Hi Robin, we did a lot of pro-bono work provcding information and flight planning to pilots delivering supplies or rescuing family members or friends right after the earthquake. We did not publicize this but it gave us a lot of satisfaction that we were able to help people with more capable aircraft make a difference.

I know that there are other members who were involved in one way or another.

Thanks, Rick. I have a couple cirrus pilot friends who did flights in with supplies immediately afterwards, so have their information and experiences to fall back on as well if I decide it is worthwhile to fly in for the relatively meager amount of supplies I can carry due to weight limitations.
Their route seemed to be down the Bahamas chain, Turks then to Haiti. Looked fairly straightforward.
