Where it goes

Five causes. You pick one.

Every one of them exists to put someone in the air who could not get there otherwise.

How this works

The money never touches us.

There is no collection, no pooled fund, no club account and no payment processor anywhere on this site. You work out what your distance is worth, you pick an organisation, and you give to them on their own donation page under their own terms.

That means we cannot tell you what the club has raised in total, and we are not going to guess. What the club logbook counts is distance, because distance is the only thing we can actually see.

It also means every organisation below is one you should check for yourself. Each card links straight to their own site. Registration numbers are listed where the organisation has one, so you can look them up in the relevant public register rather than taking our word for it.

    Aerobility

    Gives anyone with any disability access to flight, and scholarships that remove the financial barrier as well as the physical one.

    What they do

    A UK charity that puts disabled people in the left seat, in aircraft adapted so that a disability is not the thing that stops you flying. Alongside the flying itself they run scholarships, because for most people the barrier is not the aeroplane, it is the invoice.

    Why it fits

    The barrier they remove is the one every student pilot already knows: the cost, and being told no.

    Orbis Flying Eye Hospital

    An MD-10 converted into a mobile teaching hospital. Volunteer crews are current and former FedEx pilots.

    What they do

    The Flying Eye Hospital is an MD-10 with an operating theatre, a classroom and a recovery room in the cabin. It flies to places where eye surgery is scarce and the crews teach local surgeons, so the capability stays behind after the aeroplane leaves.

    Why it fits

    A type-rated crew, a real aeroplane, and a job that ends with someone seeing again.

    Wings of Hope

    Medical relief and air transport where distance, terrain and missing roads stand between people and care.

    What they do

    Aviation used where there is no road, no railway and no time. The work is unglamorous by design: short sectors, small aircraft, difficult strips, and a patient at the other end who could not otherwise be reached.

    Why it fits

    They fly the sectors nobody else will, into strips nobody else will use.

    Angel Flight West

    Volunteer pilots flying patients to distant treatment, free. Every donation is matched four times over by pilots donating the flight itself.

    What they do

    Private pilots in the western United States fly patients to treatment they cannot reach any other way, and pay for the fuel themselves. The donated flight time dwarfs the cash, which makes a small donation go a long way further than its face value.

    Why it fits

    Private pilots paying for their own fuel to move somebody else. That is the whole idea, already running.

    Pilot Mental Health Campaign

    Reforming how aviation medical regulation handles mental health, so people ask for help earlier.

    What they do

    Work on the rules rather than the aircraft. Aviation medical regulation has historically made disclosing a mental health problem a career risk, which is exactly the incentive you would not design on purpose. This is the campaign to change that.

    Why it fits

    The medical is the licence. That cuts both ways, and this is the part of it nobody talks about.

    Donate

We are a club, not a charity. You give directly to the cause you pick, on their own page. Your donation may be tax deductible depending on where you live, so ask your accountant.
