    NTSB Safety Recommendations

    National Transportation Safety Board
    Washington, DC 20594

    The National Transportation Safety Board recommends that The
    Air Care Alliance:

    Require voluntary pilot organizations to verify pilot
    currency before every flight. (A-10-102)

    Require that voluntary pilot organizations inform
    passengers, at the time of inquiry about a flight, that the
    charitable medical flight would not be conducted under the
    same standards that apply to a commercial flight (such as
    under 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 121 or Part 135).
    (A-10-103)

    In conjunction with your affiliate organizations and other
    charitable medical transport organizations, develop,
    disseminate, and require all voluntary pilot organizations
    to implement written safety guidance, best practices, and
    training material for volunteer pilots who operate
    charitable patient transport flights under 14 Code of
    Federal Regulations Part 91. The information should address,
    at a minimum, aeronautical decision-making; proper preflight
    planning; pilot qualification, training, and currency; and
    self-induced pressure. (A-10-104)
