…Well Done…”Bear”

A New Book about the DC-3 in operation today

http://angelflight44.com/

History is filled with stories of adventure.
This account, however, also includes the unmistakable presence of the hand of God. Angel Flight 44: The True Story of Two Dedicated Pilots, a 60-Year-Old DC-3, and the Amazing Hurricane Katrina Mission That Birthed a New Aviation Ministry

(This book is available in both hardback and paperback editions. Purchase your copy today at Amazon or Barnes & Noble.)

This true story is a book born out of supernatural flight missions that saved countless lives by the grace of God. Not to be confused with the pre-existing Angel Flight medical air transportation organizations, the new Angel Flight 44 ministry revealed in these pages has its own unique mission, and a most miraculous beginning. The miraculous adventure of humanitarian relief that pilot Glen Hyde and copilot Denny Ghiringhelli experienced is a remarkable tale of mercy in the face of catastrophe, and the love of God expressed through His supernatural intervention. Two world-renowned ministries partnered with a veteran aviator and his Douglas Super DC-3, an American Airlines 767 captain, numerous companies, and a storm-wearied pastor in Slidell, Louisiana, to obey a call from God to help hurting people. However, this relief mission not only saved many hurricane victims, it forever changed the lives of the people who conducted it. The numerous testimonies of this adventure have already profoundly impacted the thousands who have heard them. Now that they are collected within this book, these stories should similarly impact you.

Help support the fine work of these folks…”Bear”
