The Pilots of Mountain Air Helicopters are experienced professionals with years in the helicopter industry. On average, pilots for our company have logged over 7,000 hrs. in helicopters. Most of the flying that our company performs is in the Utility market. This requires great skills and familiarity in mountain flying, precision long line, and situational awareness. Mountain Air pilots come to us with various backgrounds in firefighting, seismic exploration, drill setting, charter, heli-skiing, and even corporate / executive servicing.

Safety of our passengers and ground personnel is our first priority. The pilots of our company are the first defense in keeping our safety record clean.

All company Pilots, regardless of their experience, complete initial and refresher training annually in a FAA approved training program. This training covers Federal Regulations, helicopter systems and components, flying skills, long-line proficiency, emergency procedures, company procedures, and more. They perform all flight emergency procedures on a regular basis to stay on top of their skills. Pilots also undergo a thorough ground and flight test administered by the FAA annually for competency and safety.

Our pilots also meet the stringent skills required for the DOI-Aviation Management, and United States Forest Service (USFS). We are carded and eager to perform.
