Angel Flight Southeast Volunteer Pilots On Standby For Irma Relief, Evacuations

Florida-Based Pilots Have Transported Evacuees From South Florida And Puerto Rico

Angel Flight Southeast, a network of approximately 650 volunteer pilots, is already flying missions to help victims of Hurricane Irma in the Caribbean as well as with Florida evacuation efforts. Flights will continue through Saturday, as weather conditions al low, to transport people out of the path of the storm.

Additionally, Angel Flight Southeast has offered to assist the Florida Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster (FLVOAD) to transport supplies into affected areas once the storm has passed. Angel Flight Southeast will also help relocate people out of devastated areas.

For more than 25 years, Angel Flight Southeast has provided free air transportation to adults and children in need of far-from-home medical care. The charity's volunteer pilots donate the fuel, airplanes and their time for these missions.

Angel Flight Southeast supports relief efforts after a natural disaster and has been assisting Air Charity Network affiliates in Texas with bringing supplies to Hurricane Harvey victims. The charity's pilots are on alert to fly missions in support of post-Hurricane Irma relief efforts.
