In a recent press release, EFA (English Field Aviation) detailed their new Charity Flight Exchange program. The aim of the program is to give back to the aviation community and support King Air pilots that are engaged in charitable flying.
“Our company motto is “We Get It,” says Travis Lamance, Co-Owner & General Manager, EFA. “Our customers already have so much to deal with in terms of regulations, from the FAA, OSHA, and the EPA. We want to make it as simple and painless as possible for our customers to maintain their aircraft.”
The program will run until the end of 2015. During this time, EFA will donate one hour of labor for each charitable flight hour flown in a customer’s King Air, with a maximum of 25 hours per aircraft per year. Upon arrival for their phase inspection, customers will need to present official documentation of charitable flying hours for a federally recognized non-profit organization. EPA’s desire is to keep the process as easy and beneficial as possible for customers.
“We carried that simplicity into this charity program in hopes that it will support King Air operators who are already engaged in charity flying or would like to be, by offsetting some of their maintenance costs,” concluded Lamance.
