If you've never done it, offer to go along as a waiver signing co-pilot.
You will no doubt be hooked. I LOVE any and all flights I'm able to take.
(Can't take as many as I would like.)

FWIW: Angel Flight Mid-Atlantic's annual banquet is the 16th in Virginia
Beach.

As much as some pilots hate to pat themselves on the back, IMHO the local
newsies should be notified about every Angel Flight. Gotta get the word
out that we are not rich playboys.

The following made the Sunday edition of the Houston Chronicle, the only

The first few viewings are "free", after that, repeated browsing requires
a free registration. First couple paragraphs pasted.

On a side note, this article played out in the Chronicle's "This Week"
segment which is a weekly "community-specific" section of the paper -
stuff local interest, area Chamber of Commerce, school stuff..




Patients' 'angels' still flying high
Volunteer pilots offer free flights for out-of-towners treated in Texas
and 6 other states

In the big state of Texas, patients sometimes have to drive hours just to
get to the hospital.

So a group of volunteer small-plane pilots got an idea: Why not offer to
fly patients to the hospital?

That was in 1991. Fourteen years later, Angel Flight South Central has
flown 11,000 patient flights. The organization also provides service to
six nearby states.......
