Airlift Northwest Fleet

Airlift Northwest provides air medical services to one of the largest and most geographically varied areas in the world. We can transport patients from isolated Alaska islands to coastal villages in Western Washington to the high desert communities in Eastern Washington. Our aviation partners – Air Methods Corporation and Executive Flight, Inc. provide the aviation services and pilots and mechanics with the aviation expertise to keep us all safe.
