      airports, Fixed Base Operators, and a small army of other 
      aviation-industry professionals are mobilizing to gather, transport, and 
      distribute essential supplies for Hurricane Harvey victims in the 
      greater Houston area, and areas affected by the catastrophic storm.
    </p>
<blockquote><p id='pull-quote'></p></blockquote>

    <p>
      These people are all a part of what is known as “business aviation” – 
      the manufacture and use of mostly small airplanes for business 
      transportation purposes. These airplanes are especially suited for 
      disaster relief because of their flexibility: they often can reach 
      locations adversely impacted by natural disasters, when airliners and 
      many vehicles cannot; they often operate on short notice; and they are 
      able to land in outlying airports with small runways, on unpaved 
      airstrips, and, sometimes, even onto roads. Many of the professionals in 
      this industry exceed at logistical coordination of the aircraft, making 
      their expertise particularly applicable to multi-party collaboration on 
      relief efforts.
    </p>
    <p>
      <span class="bwuline"><b>Example: Two Texas Aircraft Brokers Among Many 
      Involved with Harvey Relief Efforts</b></span>
    </p>
    <p>
      Janine Iannarelli, founder and president of Houston-based <a target="_blank" href="http://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.paravionltd.com&amp;esheet=51677739&amp;newsitemid=20170901005732&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Par+Avion+Ltd&amp;index=1&amp;md5=1bc4e34ac40427cbf31076f9c4b30f1c" rel="nofollow">Par 
      Avion Ltd</a>., and Robin Eissler, chief operating officer of 
      Austin-based <a target="_blank" href="http://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.jetaviva.com%2F&amp;esheet=51677739&amp;newsitemid=20170901005732&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=jetAVIVA%2C&amp;index=2&amp;md5=57275a3fc453bdbe37a571bae3b66d8a" rel="nofollow">jetAVIVA,</a> 
      are working together to coordinate Hurricane Harvey relief efforts.
    </p>
    <p>
      “Through a newly formed arrangement, <a target="_blank" href="http://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.palservices.org%2F&amp;esheet=51677739&amp;newsitemid=20170901005732&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Patient+Airlift+Services&amp;index=3&amp;md5=6907ec19181beba143e875b1142c998e" rel="nofollow">Patient 
      Airlift Services</a> (PALS) and Sky Hope Network have joined forces and 
      resources for a response to both the Houston flooding and Hurricane 
      Harvey damage along the Texas coast,” said Eissler, a co-founder of Sky 
      Hope Network, in an interview earlier this week. “The need for relief is 
      going to be unprecedented. We are ready to run immediate flights to the 
      Corpus Christi area, and we expect that we will be ready to run flights 
      to Houston now that the rain has stopped.”
    </p>
    <p>
      Those wanting to support this joint effort are invited to submit a brief 
      application through PALS by calling 631-694-7257 or emailing <a target="_blank" href="mailto:RELIEF@PALServices.org" rel="nofollow">RELIEF@PALServices.org</a>.
    </p>
    <p>
      “In addition to creating a bridge to cover the gap between aid from the 
      Red Cross and that of FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency), the 
      collective effort is to deliver essentials to the smaller agencies and 
      charitable institutions that are offering shelter and ultimately a way 
      for people to rebuild their lives,” explained Iannarelli.
    </p>
    <p>
      Relief efforts include working with non-profit organizations such as 
      Clean the World and Keller Williams KW Cares program to provide supplies 
      and ground volunteers to support the airlift.
    </p>
    <p>
      <span class="bwuline"><b>Local Action, National Support</b></span>
    </p>
    <p>
      The work being done by Eissler, Iannarelli, and countless others is 
      receiving support from the <a target="_blank" href="http://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nbaa.org&amp;esheet=51677739&amp;newsitemid=20170901005732&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=National+Business+Aviation+Association+%28NBAA%29&amp;index=4&amp;md5=7106e9d3fd0b2874adf6e1fce856cc48" rel="nofollow">National 
      Business Aviation Association (NBAA)</a>, which represents more than 
      11,000 entrepreneurs and companies that rely on business aviation to 
      meet at least part of their transportation needs.
    </p>
    <p>
      Since Hurricane Harvey descended upon Texas as a Category 4 storm on 
      Friday, Aug. 25, the NBAA’s members, the association’s regional 
      representatives, and the organization’s Washington, DC-based staff have 
      offered a resource for gathering information about available aircraft, 
      volunteers and other assets for relief assistance, in the form of NBAA’s 
      Humanitarian Emergency Response Operator (HERO) database. The 
      information in this database is updated in real time and provided for 
      initiatives like those underway in Texas. Learn more about <a target="_blank" href="http://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nbaa.org%2Fops%2Fhero%2F&amp;esheet=51677739&amp;newsitemid=20170901005732&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=NBAA%27s+HERO+database&amp;index=5&amp;md5=2e29fd540d64cef11023a36202264357" rel="nofollow">NBAA’s 
      HERO database</a>.
    </p>
    <p>
      Over the past several years, NBAA members have volunteered their skills 
      and resources to aid victims of other natural disasters such as the 
      earthquake in Haiti, Hurricanes Katrina and Ike, and Super Storm Sandy. 
      To date, more than 60 aircraft and more than 50 business aviation 
      professionals are enlisted in the database for Hurricane Harvey relief 
      efforts, with more becoming involved daily.
    </p>
    <p>
      Iannarelli noted that Eissler and the NBAA, supported in part by the 
      HERO database, have been effectively coordinating on airlift and ground 
      operations for Harvey relief.
    </p>
    <p>
      “I’m very active in the aviation community and have built a lifetime of 
      contacts and a broad network,” said Iannarelli, who has worked in the 
      business aviation industry for 34 years. She also chairs the Texas 
      Governor’s Aerospace &amp; Aviation Advisory Committee. “It occurred to me 
      that I could draw on my network to help contribute to the relief effort 
      in Houston. I am also reaching out to people in a variety of industry 
      sectors that may be able to support our efforts.”
    </p>
    <p>
      Among the supplies in focus for air-and-ground delivery as flood waters 
      recede include, but are not limited to, non-perishable food items; baby 
      formula, and diapers; cleaning products; personal hygiene products for 
      men, women and children; adult and children’s undergarments and socks; 
      linens and bedding; and gift cards for access to fuel, super stores, and 
      home improvement stores operated by national providers or Texas-based 
      providers. Pet supplies are also welcome. Items in smaller, flexible 
      packaging are better suited for transporting on business airplanes due 
      to cabin and cargo space limitations.
    </p>
    <p>
      Some of the many supporters of the business aviation community’s 
      Hurricane Harvey disaster relief efforts include, but are not limited 
      to: Conroe North Houston Regional Airport; Chennault International 
      Airport in Lake Charles, La.; Houston Executive Airport; and Gary 
      Greene/Better Homes and Gardens realtors branch office in the Clear Lake 
      area (south of downtown Houston and north of Galveston) of Houston). 
      Tremendous support is growing daily for this critical relief effort.
