On a near perfect day in May, mission aircraft and their pilots converged on a dirt strip in central Guatemala. For many months as our paths crossed, sometimes just voices on the radio, there was talk of us all getting together to share experiences and aviation stories of course. At the same time a visitor whom we were all interested in had arrived in Guatemala.

Bro Tom, a volunteer, and brother in Christ, from San Marcos TX, brought his talent and equipment to perform required checks and certifications on our aircraft systems.
