One hour by helicopter or fixed wing aircraft?
“One hour by helicopter or fixed wing aircraft?”
I’ve been in and out of there a few times. It’s about an hour and a half, hour and forty five by turbo-prop airplane from San Juan. Helicopters, particularly Puerto Rico Army National Guard helicopters, are staging out of the San Isidro Air Base in the Dominican Republic, and it is about a 45 minute flight from there to PaP.
The PRARNG were the first ones at the U.S. Embassy and have been ferrying U.S. victims to San Isidro and carrying supplies and rescue personnel back to PaP since the day after the quake.
