Perhaps now best known for its search and rescue efforts, the Civil Air Patrol now flies more than 85 percent of all federal inland search and rescue missions directed by the Air Force Rescue Coordination Center at Langley AFB, Virginia. Outside of the continental United States, CAP supports the Joint Rescue Coordination Centers in Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico.
