The airlines are a rollercoaster—layoffs one day, rehiring the next. Metro Aviation offers a smoother ride. We’ve never furloughed a pilot, so you can focus on purpose and family, not uncertainty. Choose Metro.

Position/Program?
I am a PIC for Metro Aviation, flying helicopter air ambulance for the Promedica (the hospital system in Toledo, OH). I fly the EC145e and EC145C2.
How long have you been with Metro?
18 months
How did you become a pilot?
I flew Black Hawks in the Army and was a Maintenance Test Pilot.
What did you do prior to entering the air medical industry?
I retired from the Army in December 2018 as an O5, my last assignment was PMS at Bowling Green State University. After retiring I opened two locations of a fitness franchise and kept flying a bit doing helicopter tours during Christmas season and got my fixed wing ratings.
What is your favorite thing about working for Metro?
I started working for Metro Aviation because a position opened up locally so I applied. I really liked the company from day one when I showed up in Shreveport for an interview. The culture is welcoming and very supportive of their employees. I’ve been with them for a year and a half now and my opinion hasn’t changed. They take training and safety very seriously and all of the instructors take the time to work with you so you are comfortable in the field. I feel that they will back the decisions I make and the team at the OCC is very helpful.
Hawk Drivers you’ve flown with precision and purpose in the military. Now bring that same drive to the skies where every mission saves lives. No seniority grind, just meaningful flights and more time at home!
