Sixteen animals landed at a Virginia airport on a nice Sunday. These dogs and cats were flying to new homes and a better life.

These flights are done by volunteers and animal lovers every week. One pilot, Seuk Kim, died last year on a rescue flight.

This sad event made the group stronger and bigger. Many new people joined to help animals in need.

Pilots use their own planes and pay for their flights. Volunteers help with other costs like food and vet care.

These flights help shelters find homes for many pets. The animals travel safely to new, warm houses far away.
