Choose About Us/ Neighbors’ Day
In the fall of that year, Jim Wilson joined the company and began flying air taxi jobs in the winter months. He generated additional business and as a result a second helicopter, a Bell 206B, was purchased and Jim became a partner in the company. Later that same year Jim and Dot Wilson purchased all assets of Alaska Coastal Helicopters and became Coastal Helicopters, Inc. Today the Coastal Helicopters fleet consists of two (2) Jet Rangers and eight (11) Aerospatiale AStars. In 1996, Jim became the first Alaskan since 1960 to receive the Helicopter Association International ‘Pilot of the Year’ award. Our primary objective is to support local business and industry in Air Taxi / Charter flying. Coastal provides air support for the local power company with over 45 miles of remote power lines, as well as the telephone company, often requiring helicopter assistance for the maintenance and repair of the mountain top repeaters throughout SE Alaska that provide telephones to most of the small villages and a myriad of small boats. Coastal Helicopters also provides logistical support for the mining community in the form of transport for crews and geologists for research and development, transport of crucial supplies, and support for airborne geophysical and electronic survey work. We continue to grow as the demand increases in the areas of tourism and heli-skiing. Our focus in the visitor and charter industry is to provide professional and exciting opportunities to individuals, groups or businesses. Where we can supply that support in a safe environment without adversely impacting the local community, it is our intention to do so.

Ricky Deising Retired-Alaska Marine Highway Volunteer DJ-KRNN 102.7 FM Every time I have gone to Bartlett, I’ve been treated with respect, dignity and kindness. I see providers out in the community and we always say hello to each other. They want to know how I am doing. That’s what I like about Bartlett Hospital, they’re downhome. They are good people. The Nurses Rock! I stay in Juneau because as a 65-year old male with heart issues I want to be taken care of. They don’t mess around. If I go to the Emergency Department and they decide on a medevac, I know I will be flown out of here. They get you the help you need. Everybody at Bartlett really steps up. I’ve never been treated poorly. I recommend Bartlett Regional Hospital. Bartlett Regional Hospital is actively seeking more Southeast Alaskan stories about our local hospital. If you are interested in being a #PatientofBRH, please contact Katie Bausler, Community Relations Director at 796-8567 or kbausler3@bartletthospital.org.
