Maybe you’ve toyed with the idea of using your flying skills to help others. But, what does it take to become a safe and skilled volunteer pilot? Which one of the more than 60 public benefit flight organizations would suit your passion? The Air Safety Institute’s Public Benefit Flying: Balancing Safety and Compassion online course (www.airsafetyinstitute.org/volunteerpilots) will help answer these questions and elevate your flying to a new, highly rewarding experience.
The course’s flight profiles and interactive decision-making scenarios quickly help you understand how volunteer flying demands professionalism and responsibility—far beyond that of a leisurely personal flight. Learn how to mitigate pressures and recognize treacherous mindsets that could cause harm. Become an expert at managing risk. You’ll be rewarded with the knowledge that your passengers’ safety and comfort are well cared for. What are you waiting for? Take the course now!
The course was produced with the generous support of the Air Care Alliance and affiliated volunteer pilot groups, the AOPA Foundation, and Welles Murphey Jr.
