As we stand on the threshold of a historic moment in aviation, our excitement is sky-high! 🛩️ We're proud to announce our participation as sponsors of a pivotal leg in The Century Mission - a daring global journey that pays homage to the intrepid spirit of the first-ever around-the-world flight, celebrating its 100th anniversary. Embarking westward, against the prevailing winds, The Century Mission is not just about breaking records; it's a poignant reminder of how far we've come since 1924 and a glimpse into the boundless possibilities that lie ahead in aviation. As the proud owners of two Learjet 60XRs, our involvement in this mission underscores our commitment to advancing the frontiers of flight and embracing challenges that push us beyond the ordinary. It's our way of contributing to a legacy of innovation that will inspire generations to come. Have you ever flown in, piloted, or had any connection with a Learjet? Perhaps you've been part of an aviation milestone or share our passion for preserving aviation history. Whatever your connection, we'd love to hear your stories. Share your Learjet experiences and dreams in the comments below! Classic Lear Jet Foundation #TheCenturyMission #AviationHistory #Aviation #avgeek #AviationIndustry

Business aviation, often associated with corporate executives and high net worth individuals, also has a less well known but equally impactful role in humanitarian efforts. This segment of the aviation industry provides unparalleled flexibility, reach and speed, making it a vital tool in crisis situations and charitable missions around the globe. One such contribution is the support offered to Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) and charitable organizations. Many of these entities rely on business aviation to reach underserved communities, particularly in regions with reduced infrastructure. Aircraft can be used to transport aid workers, volunteers and supplies to areas that may be otherwise inaccessible. For example, organizations like Angel Flight and Corporate Angel Network utilize business aviation to provide free air transportation for patients with serious medical conditions who need to travel for treatment. Such humanitarian missions are made possible by business aviation companies that donate flight hours, aircraft and other resources to NGOs and charitable organizations, enabling these entities to focus on their core missions without the logistical challenges of arranging transportation. The unique capabilities of business aviation make it an invaluable asset in facilitating global humanitarian efforts. As we can see, business aviation’s mission can extend far beyond luxury travel and corporate convenience.

AMSTAT is a very proud supporter of AeroAngel! Mission: AeroAngel provides flights for seriously ill children needing access to distant, life-saving medical care. · AMSTAT has been a tremendous resource for building AeroAngel's flight donation program, which relies on jet owners and operators filling critical flight needs. · AeroAngel's goal is to fill 100% of flight requests and utilizing AMSTAT’s large database has greatly aided in meeting that goal. · Without access to key contacts for owners and operators, it would be very difficult for AeroAngel to contact potential flight donors with urgent requests. · Even one donated flight per year can save a child's life and has. #aeroangel #amstat #aircraft #aviation #businessaviation #aviationlife #aviationdaily #jet #jets #jetset #privatejet #turboprop #turbine #helicopter #december

WE NEED YOUR HELP to fund a critical $2.1M upgrade to our flight simulator. At Life Flight Network, training, learning, and preparation are the pillars of safe operations. One of the state-of-the-art tools we use to train our pilots is the Bell 407 GXi flight simulator, built by FRASCA. This highly technical equipment allows our pilots to practice flying in varying weather conditions, terrain, and emergency scenarios, enhancing our ability to provide leading-edge care to the communities we serve. While our current technology has greatly increased operational safety, associated training hours do not count toward FAA training requirements. This means we must take aircraft out of service to complete training flights, reducing the availability of these assets for lifesaving transports. To improve efficiencies, reduce out-of-service time for our aircraft, and improve the quality of our pilot training even further, we are seeking to purchase an upgrade for our simulator that would allow training hours to count toward FAA requirements. But we need your help to make it happen. A donation to our Virtual Skies campaign is an incredible way to make a meaningful impact in your community. It's also tax deductible and an investment in Life Flight Network’s mission of saving lives. We appreciate the generous support from individuals like you who feel compelled to contribute, regardless of the donation amount. Your decision to support our organization is truly valued and makes a difference in the communities we serve.
