Mother Nature’s wrath can bring death and destruction to entire communities. The pilots and aircraft of General Aviation (GA) are often the first to respond to these tragedies — sometimes even before they happen. GA aircraft are used to fly officials who survey and forecast the level of threat to their community. Once disaster strikes, GA is used to deliver emergency food and medical supplies, evacuate the trapped or injured, transport support personnel, and monitor the progress of cleanup efforts.
