While crisis response management provider Fireside Partners has been an exhibitor and presenter at NBAA’s Schedulers and Dispatchers Conference (SDC) for years, for the show’s latest edition in Nashville, Tennesee, starting on January 24, the company will be featuring its Air-SOS program for the first time.
Launched in late 2021, the program focuses on specialty airlift assistance such as aeromedical transport, the repatriation of remains, or other sensitive flights where extra care and discretion are required. The company has established a thoroughly-vetted authorized provider network and organizes all transport details including the sourcing of aircraft. “Through this network, we have access to several specialty-configured aircraft to meet the different requirements of the unique operations we work, including larger medevac aircraft, which provide patient/passenger comfort closer to what our clients experience on their own fleet,” said Sarah Kiehl, Air-SOS program manager.
