I've just received a phone call from Ben Wood with the following information.
Communications very difficult due to hurricane damage to local telephone and power lines. Should be back on line in the next 24/48 hours.
All EFT Staff and Students safe.
EFT aircraft safe, were flown out to Louisiana before hurricane.
EFT Building has some very minor roof damage but is already under repair.
Student Accommodation is OK.
As soon as the path of the next hurricane, Ivan, is more certain, they plan to fly the aircraft back to Fort Pierce, hopefully within the next 48 hours.
If you were planning to travel out to Fort Pierce in the next few days and need further information, call me on 01273 464443 and I will find out what I can.
