The operational pressure on Angel Flight pilots is precisely and absolutely zero. Pilots don't have to go anywhere or do anything in an aeroplane unless they decide to. Angel Flight certainly DO NOT decide for them or pressure them in any way. That is NOT how they work.
Exactly correct. They are very clear to all volunteers that pilot initiated flight cancellation is considered good airmanship. Plenty of flights get cancelled with no ramifications. This is not Flying Doctors work- nothing time critical & no critically ill passengers. Any pressure is self imposed.
