You are always a part of the Carolina Air Care family. Joe Armstrong passed away this week. His sister Michelle sent a message informing of us the sad news. Joe was one of the early aircraft mechanics on TarHeel 1, remembered as great character, and not a better mechanic around. Thank you, Joe, for your service in the Navy and our program.

It's World Helicopter Day! Coincidentally, it is also the first week of class for students. We are fortunate to serve the Tar Heel State and beyond with our amazing fleet of helicopters. Thank you to the pilots, mechanics, and medical crews who serve each day to carry out our lifesaving mission.
