Pilots to the Rescue’s mission is to save pets facing potential euthanasia using a specially equipped plane, enrolling a network of trained pilots, shelters, ground teams and veterinarians. Top Dog, Michael Schneider says, “PTTR flies these little souls filled with unconditional love giving them a second chance for a furever home.” Pilots to the Rescue is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit all volunteer organization.
Their first plane is a 6 passenger plane that can carry approximately 1,000 lbs and has great bay loading doors for larger cages and the seats can easily be removed. It cruises close to 200mph and has a 5 hour endurance. Perfect for sub 1,000 mile ranges (from NY).
They recently did a red wolf rescue: Please see: https://tinyurl.com/dogrescueflights
