WHILE the future of our Angel Flight charity still hangs in the balance, I want to take this opportunity to say thank you to the people of country Australia and local councils for publicly supporting our organisation.

The many thousands of our volunteers, who generously give their time to help Australians in need, appreciate the immense community support Angel Flight has received in our continuing struggle for survival.
We have strongly argued our case in a detailed submission to the Civil Aviation Safety Authority — and we now must nervously wait to hear the outcome of their deliberations.
Angel Flight has flown 17,000 flights over the past 11 years providing no-cost transport for isolated people of all ages seeking vital medical treatment in major cities.
Our charity wants to continue that work.
Angel Flight believes that where you live shouldn’t deny you safe and swift access to medical expertise and treatment.
We are about eliminating distance and distress for those in need.
Too many people in many remote towns rely on Angel Flight for assistance and we can only hope that commonsense and compassion overrides red tape when CASA finally makes its decision on our future.
Staying silent is not an option, and with your encouragement and support we will keep fighting and flying.
— BILL BRISTOW,
CEO Angel Flight, Australia
