Avalanche activity is very high in many areas in the Rocky Mountains. This shot was taken by flight nurse Hunter just south of Little Agnes in the Zirkels near Steamboat Colorado on their way back to base.

Today, Classic is shining its employee spotlight on Rich!

Rich is the lead fixed wing pilot at our Page AZ base where he is also an instructor.

He officially joined the team in 2007, but Rich has been a member of the Classic family for much longer than that; his father, Richard H. Willard was the company’s original director of fixed wing operations and wrote Classic’s certificate for fixed wing aviation back in 2005.

It was his father who inspired Rich to one day become a pilot back when he was just 15 years old. He went on to follow in his dad’s footsteps, serving in the US Marine Corps for 11 years at Camp Pendleton in California and the Marine Corps Air Station in Kaneohe Bay in Hawaii. Towards the end of his time in the Marines, Rich began flying basic reconnaissance flights, marking the start of his career in the sky! Soon after, he joined Classic as a jet charter pilot before transferring to the air medical side in 2010. He's flown close to 1,000 missions ever since.

Rich takes pride in helping to lead and mentor others within the Classic family. He says every day is a new adventure with Classic, and he appreciates the family-oriented nature of the team.

When he’s not flying, Rich lives in Page AZ with his wife, freelance photographer Bonnie McCarthy. He has two adult children and enjoys spending time biking and hiking with his wife.

Thank you, Rich, for all that you do!

Today, Classic is shining it’s employee spotlight on Kerry!

Kerry is the base manager of our Glenwood Springs CO base where she is also a flight nurse.

As a child growing up in the Midwest, Kerry would take in injured animals and help them on their road back to health; an early sign that she was a future nurse in the making. One day, when she was a nursing student, Kerry was stuck in traffic and saw a helicopter landing on the highway median responding to a car accident. As she watched, she knew that one day she’d be part of a flight crew just like that one.

Kerry spent the next ten years working in pediatric and neonatal ICU’s, emergency rooms, and Level 1 trauma centers in Texas, Missouri, and Colorado. She got her first job as a flight nurse in 2010 before landing at Classic in 2016. Throughout her career Kelly has transported about two thousand patients and counting!

Kerry loves helping others during their hour of need, and her cool calm demeanor helps put patients at ease in tough times. In 2010, she even spent a few weeks in Haiti as part of the earthquake recovery effort. As a flight nurse, she loves the opportunity to learn something new each shift, and the views of the Rocky Mountains might be her favorite perk of the job.

When she’s not flying, Kerry lives in Berthoud CO with her husband Lance. They have three adult children (between them) and three grandchildren with another one on the way in March! She enjoys all things adventure, including camping, off-roading, and hiking. She’s a certified scuba diver, and loves scuba diving, particularly on the Caribbean island of Bonaire where she has a vacation home.

Thank you, Kerry, for all that you do!
