John Travolta again manned the helm of a Haiti-bound Boeing 707 Monday, visiting the country for the second time in the wake of the deadly 7.0 earthquake, armed with four tons of medical supplies, ready-to-eat military meals and a group of doctors and ministers from the Church of Scientology.
"We have the ability to actually help make a difference in the situation in Haiti and I just can't see not using this plane to help," Travolta said Monday before commandeering the flight from Tampa, Florida to Haiti.
