This Al-Anon meeting of the Birds of a Feather has been established to address the special needs of family members of pilots whose lives have been affected by alcoholism. BOAF Al-Anon is also valuable to help our sober pilot members who are parents of alcoholics or are adult children of alcoholics.

BOAF recognizes the unique pressures of an aviation family. Therefore, we meet to provide a forum where both recovery and problems peculiar to aviation families can be discussed with impunity.

Attendance at these meetings will be limited to family members of pilots as well as any pilots both active and inactive.
