The Woolsey family flew the 2012 King Air 350i, which they managed at the time but now own, to Fernando Luis Ribas Dominicci Airport the day after Hurricane Maria’s 2017 landfall in San Juan, Puerto Rico. At the time, there was a Mil- lion Air FBO franchise at the GA airfield and the Woolseys wanted to support their employees as well as the community. They brought a FEMA- grade satellite they procured at their own cost along with technicians they hired who were able to use the equipment to establish com- munications with the mainland. It was the start of multiple daily flights in the King Air to bring generators and supplies to the island, as well as transporting residents back to the mainland for medical care.
