Business aviation is often on the front line in lending a hand to citizens and communities in times of crisis. Through volunteer organizations like Angel Flight, Air Care Alliance and Corporate Aircraft Responding in Emergencies, companies and pilots regularly provide life-saving services to people in hard-to-reach communities around the globe.

These missions include:

  • Disaster relief – shipping food, medicine and clothing to people in need
  • Life-flight service – transporting terminally-ill patients for life-saving medical procedures
  • Emergency organ, blood and serum transfers
  • Volunteer transportation for U.S. Military Soldiers, Red Cross and National Guard units
