Description |
Angel Flight America–a national network of seven autonomous regional members–arranges free flights of hope and healing by transporting patients and their families in private planes to hospitals for medical treatment. They also provide free flights in the event of a national crisis or whenever there is a compelling human need.
They are a non-profit grassroots volunteer corps of over 5,000 private pilots from all 50 states who proudly support and fly under the banner of Angel Flight. In the year 2003 alone, the seven regional members of Angel Flight America provided over 17,000 flights for children and adults. With support from thousands of compassionate and caring people-our pilots, ground volunteers (Earth Angels), mission coordinators, donors and the media– Angel Flight America has become the largest charitable air carrier in America. |
