The International Fellowship of Flying Rotarians (IFFR) is a worldwide group of Rotarians dedicated to promoting Rotary and general aviation as an opportunity for fellowship and service. IFFR operates under Rotary International policy, whose core motto is “service above self”.

IFFR is divided into three Regions – the Americas, Europe/Africa, and Australia/Asia. Members volunteer their time and resources to fly missions for many volunteer pilot organizations. In the Americas, IFFR fits well with the Air Care Alliance (ACA) and supports its mission.

IFFR and ACA partnered to create a presentation available to Rotary Clubs, and other organizations, to publicize the availability of free air transportation for non-emergency medical and other compelling needs. It highlights the opportunities for Rotarian and non-Rotarian pilots- and non-pilots interested in aviation – to get involved with IFFR and how to volunteer with general aviation organizations in their communities.
Contact Alan Dias (aland@angelflightwest.org) West of the Mississippi or Mark Hanson (m.hanson@aircarealliance.org) East of the Mississippi for information about the presentation and to learn more about IFFR.

Flying Angels provides medical transport on commercial airlines with highly trained flight nurses, for both domestic and international missions.  Our clients range from senior citizens who simply need travel assistance to more serious cases involving individuals with mobility impairments, oxygen dependency, etc. If someone can tolerate sitting, we can most likely transport them.  Even though we are a fee-for-service organization and not a charity organization, our goal is to provide a cost effective alternative to expensive air ambulance service. Finally, our team remains steadfastly committed to the highest standards of ethics and compassionate care, and our highly skilled case managers manage the patient transport from bedside to bedside.
