Augusta Aviation, Inc.

On this day in #aviationhistory October 27, 1927 Daniel Field had its grand opening. It was first located at Daniel Village, just across the street from its current location. Thank you to Donnie McGahee for sharing this article with us!

Congratulations to Monty Harrison on completing his first student solo today! Monty started out as a flight student with us and is also now an employee on our Line Service crew. He has been working hard for months to reach this achievement and our instructors and staff are so proud! He has been flying with Augusta Aviation CFIs Dan Matson and William Dustin Raines. Way to go guys!

Congratulations to Augusta Aviation flight student, Logan Barker, on completing his first solo flight! He has been working hard with CFI Dan Matson! Way to go, Logan! One step closer to that private pilot license!

Mr. Larry Jordan is very modest in his presentation about what makes Angel Flight work. Pilots volunteer 100% of their time and their planes. These pilots pay 100% of the costs associated with air transportation to include fuel and airport landing fees. Many of the patients go to the same airport numerous times before being released from medical care by their physicians. We've gotten to know some of the patients who are flown into Augusta Aviation, Inc. at Daniel Field Airpo...rt for medical care in Augusta. They all are so grateful for the opportunity to receive top-notch medical care that otherwise would not be available to them without Angel Flight. So, if the pilots pay all the costs associated with the air transportation part of Angel Flight, where does the money go that Angel Flight receives? Well, let me just tell you: Any funding Angel Flight receives is used to to staff this organization with compassionate employees who coordinate patient transportation. There's a lot to this, believe me. Very little money is used for promoting or advertising. I'm voting for Angel Flight everyday starting today until November 4th.

This evening we had a Chinook come in for refuel. We always appreciate it when our military aircraft choose to come into Daniel Field Airport!

Our recovery services team members routinely fly across the state, rain or shine, to compassionately work with our hospital partners and donor families to make ...donation happen. Last month, a Family Care Coordinator took a picture of the plane's radar as he flew home from a long work day. It was a very bumpy ride with gusting winds and hard rain, but our aviation partners made sure everyone got home safe! #StrongerTogether #Thankful #uneditedphoto See more

How’s this for a midweek pick me up?!

HAPPY LABOR DAY to all the men and women who work so hard to make America proud. This is YOUR day. All of us at Augusta Aviation, Inc. thank you for all you do.
