As published elsewhere......
The entire team is in Honolulu. On Thursday when the first members were to
depart to Midway we were informed of a problem with the plane involving an
oil leak. We were assured it was fixable. Friday several test flights were
made that determined that the repairs were unsuccessful. We are frantically
searching for alternative means. We discovered yesterday that there are no
available planes on the Island that are either certified to fly to Midway or
large enough for us. We are negotiating with a company in California for a
jet as well. The plane we original chartered is about to take off on a test
flight to determine if the repairs made overnight were successful.
The team is not giving up and exploring ALL options to make this happen.
Fish and Wildlife is being very supportive of our efforts but in no way will
they extend the end date of our operation beyond the 19th due to the return
of migratory species that have already begun to return early.
We will update the website in 5 or 6 hours when the plane returns and is
checked out. We are as frustrated as you.
