It continues to be the intent of Angel Flight® Mid-Atlantic to maintain the safety and security of passengers and pilots.
With FAA’s focused attention on General Aviation security measures, the following procedures contained in this protocol are designed specifically to protect the pilots, passengers and ground personnel involved directly or indirectly with all Angel Flight Mid-Atlantic missions and are in accordance with the National Policy on Homeland Defense. As you know, much of our contact with the patients is via phone. You are our eyes and ears and we rely on you to use your best judgment in regard to these matters.
- Each pilot of an Angel Flight Mission may check the passenger ID to assure the ID matches the passenger flying as identified on the mission setup.
- All authorized adult passengers, upon request, shall present the Angel Flight pilot with his/her Government issued photo identification* (ID) PRIOR to boarding the aircraft.
- The parent or guardian of all minor passengers (under the age of 18), upon request, shall present the Angel Flight pilot with his/her (parent or guardian) Government issued photo ID PRIOR to signing the Liability Release Form. (This applies only to parents or guardians NOT accompanying the minor).
