Today, Classic is shining its employee spotlight on Ivan!

Ivan joined the Classic team in 2015 and is the lead rotor wing pilot at our Cortez CO base where he is also the regional public relations and marketing representative.

Born and raised in Cashmere WA, Ivan’s career in the sky started during a summer backpacking trip to Alaska when he was in college. After taking a mountaineering course, he began his first of five seasons working as a heli-hiking guide. By his fourth summer, he’d already started flying.

Over the next few years, Ivan fell in love with helicopters, leading backpacking and ice climbing trips in Alaska during the summers and ski instructing in Sun Valley ID during the winters. He graduated with a degree in aeronautics from Utah Valley University before moving back to Washington for flight school.

From there, Ivan worked as a flight instructor in Olympia before joining Era Helicopters, flying offshore oil in the Gulf of Mexico and utility and tourism flights in Alaska. When an opportunity presented itself to enter the air medical field, Ivan took it, and has been helping others in and around the Four Corners area ever since.

Ivan is passionate about helping others in their greatest times of need, something he calls both the toughest and most rewarding part of the job. At Classic, Ivan says he’s found the “best little company I’ve ever worked for,” and he’s impressed with the team’s ability to maintain its small family feel, even as it has grown.

When he’s not flying, Ivan lives in Durango CO with his nine-year-old son Ryder. They enjoy skiing, mountain biking, and camping. During the pandemic, Ivan has even picked up a few video game skills, and it doesn’t take much arm twisting for him to join Ryder in playing some Minecraft.

Thank you Ivan for all that you do!

On February 18, 1943, the first class of flight nu

On February 18, 1943, the first class of flight nurses marched from the base chapel after graduating from their specialized course of medical training at Bowman Field in Louisville, Kentucky. On this day, the new field of transport nursing emerged as a specialty as both the Army and Navy instituted flight nurse programs. These nurses were trained to care for wounded soldiers during transport on converted cargo planes and on the field of battle. Since that time, nurses have expanded their role in this field to include the civilian sector, responding to care for patients in ambulances, helicopters and airplanes.
We are incredibly grateful for our amazing critical care flight nurses.
Thank you for your service.

Today, Classic is shining its employee spotlight on Brittney!

Brittney joined the Classic team in 2014 and is currently stationed out of our Pocatello ID base as a flight nurse.

Originally from California, Brittney moved to Salt Lake City UT when she was ten years old. She knew she wanted to be a nurse from a young age and graduated from high school as a medical assistant. From there, she went straight into nursing, receiving her associate degree from Salt Lake City Community College and her bachelor’s degree from Western Governors University. Today, Brittney’s strong commitment to education continues at the University of Phoenix where she is currently in nurse practitioner school.

After a two year stint as a labor and delivery nurse at the University of Utah, Brittney worked at Intermountain Medical Center’s level 1 trauma center for ten years. That’s where she first crossed paths with the Classic team who impressed her with the company’s family atmosphere and the opportunity to achieve her goal of becoming a flight nurse.

Seven years later, and Brittney has flown out of all of Classic’s northern bases. Coincidentally, she spent her entire first year at the company flying only night missions with just two daytime exceptions. She says she’s thankful to her colleagues for their teamwork, camaraderie, and consistent desire to see each other grow and succeed. She particularly loves mentoring new hires and watching them evolve with the company.

When she’s not flying, Brittney lives full time in Riverton UT with her husband Brad and their two sons, Carter and Deegan. She’s proud to call herself a full-time baseball mom. In between shepherding her boys to tournaments and games, the family still finds time to go camping, ice fishing, paddle boarding and hiking.

Thank you Brittney for all that you do!
