OUR STORY

In 1980, Roy Morgan founded Air Methods after a personal experience convinced him that properly-equipped and staffed air medical service helicopters were a must. With one helicopter and a single hospital contract in Colorado, he pledged his commitment to safety and outstanding patient care. 

Today, we hold those same values and are always ready to respond when it matters most. Annually, we conduct over 100,000 transports amassing over 150,00 flight hours.

Air Methods is the leading air medical service, delivering lifesaving care to more than 100,000 people every year. With over 40 years of air medical experience, we are the preferred partner for hospitals and one of the largest community-based providers of air medical services. Air Methods’ fleet of owned, leased, or maintained aircraft features more than 450 helicopters and fixed wing aircraft.
