Founding of the Association
Hi, I'm Cristina, I'm not sending you these lines neither from heaven nor from hell nor from a place beyond the horizons of your world.These words are written from the perspective of the memories of family and loved ones, with whom I have passed through the last priceless moments without realizing it.
Those beloved people changed my cheerful, vibrant and optimistic essence. Along with them remained feelings of helplessness and frustration, generated by an ineffective State system that failed to provide the necessary response in a critical moment of my life.
You can also help!
Each second of suffering becomes easier and more hopeful with your support.
EVERY MINUTE COUNTS
My story
In those moments of great difficulty and fear, when my life seemed to hang by a thin thread, my husband Lucian became a real fighter. He directed all his resources and energy towards finding a plane that would take me to a chance to live, in a clinic abroad. It seemed as if bad luck wanted to play a crucial role: the only aircraft of this kind in Romania was state-owned and not operational at the time. Through unimaginable efforts my family managed to get me to my destination, Germany, while I was intubated and threatened by the lack of oxygen.
After months of struggle and efforts in that place, I got back to the point where I needed an aircraft to travel. Filled with hope I turned to the Romanian state again, believing that the repairs to the aircraft were completed. With a heavy heart, I confidently waited for that moment because I needed that aircraft so badly. However, I was hit by a wave of disappointment when I realized that, even at that moment, the aircraft that was essential to me was not fully operational.
Rather than looking for culprits in this situation, we focused our attention on how we could fill this gap in the Romanian system.
Unfortunately, I gave in to life. In honor of my memory, which has left a huge void in the souls of my loved ones, the AeroCris project was born. With the hope of a better future, we strive to erase the dark memory for those who put so much passion and effort into trying to save me.

What we wish and how we avoid unpleasant situations?
Avoiding at all costs similar situations where people's lives depend on the authorities' or even private companies' inability to provide timely and accurate services and information.
By providing a fully equipped private aircraft to transport patients in emergency situations, we offer private transport services. Flight crews and specialized medical teams are already prepared for interventions.
Required budget
Budget: EUR 3 million, Aircraft (EUR 1-2 million), Promotion (EUR 0.5 million), Conversion and crew training (EUR 0.5 million).
