"Dan Luke" wrote in message ... I agree with Gary. In flying Angel Flights, I'm doing what I enjoy most; the sacrifice is minimal. It is very heartwarming to feel the gratitude of the pax and to know that I am helping them, but I don't kid myself that I'm in the same humanitarian class as people who do volunteer work in disaster areas, for example. All that aside, I recommend that all pilots consider Angel Flight. It's fun, rewarding, and will broaden your flying experience. Angel Flight needs pilots! -- Dan C172RG at BFM And there are tax benefits too, right?

Sure, take the cost of fuel and oil for the flight, divide by 50%, then deduct the expense as a charitable contribution, which results in perhaps 32% back on that amount. In other words, spend $100 and receive back $15. There are much better tax deductions in the US than charity, if one is only looking to reduce taxable income.  -- Peter R.
