The turbulence was so rough that I had trouble grabbing the knob to change the frequency on the radio. I heard the sound announcing that he had turned off the autopilot. Nowadays, most pilots would have kept it on. But he’s such an excellent pilot that he hand-flew that plane through the turbulence and maintained his heading and altitude without any deviations.” Training and flying alongside Brother Copeland not only had its practical benefits for Duane, he also began seeing firsthand how Brother Copeland is quick to apply his faith to everyday situations. On one occasion, Duane recalled, Brother Copeland was preaching a morning service while Duane drove to the airport to prepare the Citation X for departure. He unlocked the cabin door and moved the door latch down to open it, but the door didn’t budge. Duane tried everything he knew to get the door open, still it would not move. Calling Brother Copeland’s assistant, Duane asked, “Is he still preaching?” “Yes, but the service is about to end.” “Take him to the hotel and have him call me.” “What’s up?” Brother Copeland asked upon phoning Duane. “Captain, I can’t get the cabin door open,” Duane explained. “We’ve been trying for two hours.” “I’m heading to the airport.” On the way, Brother Copeland phoned Duane again. “Do you remember that Romans 8:28 says that all things work together for good to those who love God and are called according to His purpose?” he said. “Yes, sir.” “That door is a thing,” Brother Copeland said. “Do we love God? Are we called according to His purpose?” “Yes.” “OK, let’s pray that way.” As they prayed, Duane walked back to the cabin door. Once again, he unlocked the door, and moved the door latch. This time, the door opened! Ministry on His Mind “Brother Copeland uses every opportunity to teach us how to operate in God’s Word,” Duane explains. “He could have prayed with the same result, but he let me be part of the solution. What he does isn’t just a job. His mind stays on ministry opportunities. “Another time,” Duane recalls, “we were in Nigeria getting the plane refueled for departure when some of the local airport employees asked if Brother Copeland would pray for them. He was already on board. When I asked, he jumped up and said, ‘Of course I will.’ “Outside, we found several men knelt down on both knees. None of them had been to his meeting, but they were hungry for prayer. Another man saw what was happening and joined them. Brother Copeland anointed each man with oil and prayed over each of them. “The planes are nothing more than a tool to him. They allow him to reach more people. His heart isn’t on the tool, his heart is on the people. That’s what it’s all about for him. He was as happy praying for those few men on the tarmac as he was preaching to a crowd of over 100,000 just an hour earlier. He is the kindest and most giving person I’ve ever known.” Lisa works in aviation with Duane, where she coordinates the details of every flight, including scheduling the aircraft and pilots. Both she and Duane are always ready to assist the Copelands with their aviation needs 24/7. On occasion, Brother Copeland will call while he’s on vacation. “Hey, Captain,” Duane says, “what’s up?” “Oh, I just missed hearing your voice. How are things?” Protecting the Anointing The entire aviation crew works closely with Brother Copeland. To plan overseas flights, they work months in advance. There are many things to consider such as permit requirements, language barriers, airport restrictions and safety, especially in certain areas and remote locations. Where aircraft fuel isn’t always readily available, they plan for that as well. Our aviation ground crew plays a vital role in keeping KCM’s aircraft in a state of mission readiness. They maintain a high level of integrity and faithfulness to the Copelands and KCM’s mission statement. They are an integral part of every flight. “We make it our goal to always stay in tune with the Holy Spirit,” Duane says. “During our pretrip planning sessions, we all work together to ensure we make the best decisions regarding every aspect of an upcoming mission. 22 : BVOV
