In the wake of Francois' incident at Demo that required what could have been a costly airlift, I thought I might let you guys know about the flightcare insurance program I'm a member of.
If your insurance doesn't cover such services, you could become a member of one of the two flightcare programs in Northern California - Enloe or CalStar. Since I spend about 20 days a year instructing motorcycle roadracing and advanced track riding at different racetracks in the state, that sort of coverage makes a lot of sense for me.
I currently spend $25 a year for coverage through the Enloe Flightcare Membership program, as part of a group policy. Individual policies are $35 a year.

I believe Enloe's coverage area is the far north-eastern portion of the state, but they're reciprocal partners with CalStar, which covers most of the other areas of California where I ride.

Hope no one *has* to use it, but I thought I'd pass it on.
