Scope of Work Humanitarian Evacuation of US Citizens from Haiti. Echo1 was engaged by the State of Florida Division of Emergency Management to provide airlift services for the State’s mission to evacuate US citizens from Haiti as a result of civil unrest. We provided multiple aircraft, both fixed-wing and rotary, to facilitate safe evacuations. Two (2) Bell 412 rotary aircraft were used to move evacuees from hostile “red zones” to regional airfields deemed safe for fixed-wing operations.

Three (3) fixed-wing aircraft were then used to transport evacuees back to the US. Fixed-wing aircraft consisted of an Embraer EMB145, Casa 212, and a Citation Excel. In total, we operated 12 flight legs per day over a 45-day period. In addition to aircraft and crew, Echo1 provided necessary fuel resources, scheduling, and security and field medical personnel. The mission was completed with the safe and timely return of all mandated evacuees.
