Missionary pilot Nathan Tag and maintenance specialist Bryan Abbott will undergo testing in Indonesia on Monday to be certified for the helicopter that will be shipped soon.
The men were not expecting to take the test at this time, but since the certification process can take months they thought it best to change their plans. Nathan and Bryan hope to have their certification papers in hand before the helicopter arrives.
The test is in two parts. One related to the helicopter and the other to regulations that govern flying in Indonesia.
One difficulty the men may face is understanding the test questions. The test is in English but has been translated from Bahasa Indonesian, which could alter the way questions are presented.
Please pray that the men will understand the questions and have good recall of their knowledge.
