Get to know Tony ...
Tony’s passion for flying was ignited when he was a teenager and on his first attempt to climb the Grand Teton. He was camped at 11,700 feet at the Lower Saddle with his brother. Park Rangers were doing a rescue on the Grand, and a helicopter came in just above their heads and landed on the Upper Saddle. It was an awesome sight! And, at that moment, Tony knew that someday he too would be a capable helicopter pilot.
After that - life evolved and Tony pursued a career in construction, and volunteered for over 20 years for search-and-rescue. With time and patience though, Tony had the good fortune to realize his dream and second career - flying helicopters. Tony obtained his commercial pilots license in 2017 from Mountain Ridge Helicopters in Logan, UT. Tony thinks his work and life experiences help him to be a confident, and - most importantly - safe pilot. Tony's personal philosophy has always been and continues to be - safety first.
