Flying mission
The modest, soft-spoken Huggins attributes his success to
the talented and dedicated people
around him.
"I've heard that most startups
go bankrupt in 10 to 15 years," he
said. "I've been very fortunate and
lucky that I have some really good
employees; they make me look
good. I've had some pretty lucky
breaks, too. Of course, the good
Lord has blessed me immensely."
Huggins was born in Costa Rica,
grew up in Guatemala and Panama,
came to the U.S. at 15, and became a
U.S. citizen in 1974. He continues to look for ways to give back.
In February, Huggins flew a mission trip to Mexico in
his Super Cub, talking to villagers and distributing Bibles
collected at his church. He stopped in Reynosa, Monterrey,
Saltillo, Torreón, Mazatlán and Tepic.

"In 1998, I went to Mexico with a medical group," said
Huggins, a seasoned pilot with 3,200 flight hours. "We flew
into the mountains and brought
medicine, doctors and nurses,
providing free medical care to the
Huichol Indians. I wanted to go back
to visit. My intent was to fly 4,200
miles through Mexico to Honduras and
back. But I had an incident in Mexico
where I ground-looped my aircraft on
landing. I ended up only going 950
miles.
"I'll get my aircraft repaired and go
again in November when hurricane
season ends. I want to get more
involved. I'm approaching retirement. I want to rededicate
my life to ministering, maybe provide air ambulance services
in my airplane in those places. I just want to help, give a little
bit of me and my knowledge to make somebody's life a little
better or more comfortable." q
