Welcome

  • There is a desperate need for the service FOOTPRINTS provides. One cannot escape from the reality that there are many patients all over the country wondering how they will get to treatment centers because of the burdens of cost and other considerations.
  • A large database of charter and business jets allows FOOTPRINTS to help those in need, by providing access within a few hours flight time to all appropriate destination cities.
  • The Flight Resource Group, LLC manages the flight operations for FOOTPRINTS in the Sky. This aircraft management, consulting and advanced flight training company has over 30 years of experience in the aviation industry.
  • Our philosophy is based upon the fact that transportation by commercial airlines is not suitable for many patients, and private charter and air ambulance can cost in excess of $ 50,000. Additionally, scheduled air carriers only provide service to a relatively small number of airports. Corporate flight departments and Charter Operators often exist because companies or individuals need to travel to destinations not served by commercial air carriers. For many years, the generosity of these entities has been invaluable to FOOTPRINTS.
