Hey "Rev." ( Must be careful with that abbreviation though with all this "Christian" Foundation stuff ... )

What a Fantastic idea, your insight into how to achieve this is phenomenal, you should be on Johan's team to help with the planning !

He's got to raise the money beforehand so he can use the 70% earmarked for "charity" to buy the bibles, food, water, clothing, medicine, Oh and don't forget the building materials, not to mention the pastors, and maybe even a few sets of worry beads ( he's going to need them ) and take them all along with him on the trip !

It still seems to be undecided as to the aircraft that Johan will use on this adventure - there have been reports of :

NC Times.com
a large, turbo-powered helicopter ---- possibly an AS350 Eurocopter, if Nurmi decides to buy one ----
World Record Helicopter Team Sponsor Package
... the World Record Helicopter Team will fly around the world in a Bell 430.
and now, according to some other rumours I've heard he's planning to go round the round the World in a GAZELLE

Then there's the DC3 back-up plane, but you won't be able to fit much in that as it wil be crammed full of all the sponsors !

Perhaps they should consider other aircraft too ....


or this - could also come in handy when the 18 wheeler breaks down...


... anyone got any other ideas that can be fed through to the Planning Department at WRHT ??
