Additionally, pilots enjoy 24-hour housing and a structured 14 days on, 14 days off work schedule.

As a Rotor-Wing IFR Strike Team Pilot, you will be tasked with developing pilot information guides detailing hospital locations, communication frequencies, and operational procedures to aid flight planning and coordination.
