WHAT KIND OF LIABILITY IS ASSOCIATED WITH AN ANGEL FLIGHT?
Angel Flight Mid-Atlantic provides liability release forms to pilots prior to each flight. Prior to boarding the plane, passengers are to sign these forms and the pilot then mails them to the AFMA office. (Pilots typically leave the forms at the FBO for mailing.) Therefore, the liability for an Angel Flight Mid-Atlantic flight is no different than any other Part 91 flight involving passengers. Also, normal aircraft liability insurance will cover these flights since they are non-commercial. Angel Flight Mid-Atlantic encourages, but does not require pilots to fly with a co-pilot.
