Does anyone have any info on where a pilot can donate his
flying skills if he doesn't come to the operation with his own airplane? I
can make my way to the relief area and offer to fly, but not entirely sure
where to start. Before I start phoning all the organizations on the
aircareall website, I was hoping maybe someone here had some info already.
Anything you can provide will be helpful.


If you have an instrument rating, you could offer your piloting time and a
rental aircraft to Angel Flight (http://www.angelflightamerica.org/) or the
Vacation Rentals group (http://www.vacationrentalsforfamilies.com/). I am
confident that the demand for volunteer pilots will be strong throughout
the next several months.

Not sure if this applies to you, but it is worth pointing out that pilots
who donate an aircraft (rental or owned) and who are willing to pay their
own costs (fuel, rental, etc) are the types who will be in demand. For the
GA pilot willing to help out, there's no free flight time involved in this.
