Milestone 10th air medical PC-12 boosts critical care transport capability

Fargo Jet Center has completed and delivered its 10th dedicated air medical aircraft for Life Flight Network, marking a milestone in the long-standing partnership between the two organizations. The latest delivery is a newly outfitted Pilatus PC-12, designed to support critical care patient transport operations across the Pacific Northwest, Intermountain West, Hawaii, and beyond.

The aircraft features a range of advanced medical and cabin upgrades to enable ICU-level care in-flight. These include a new satellite communication and flight-following system, enhanced cabin audio and intercom, integrated sidewall with oxygen and power outlets, upgraded LED lighting, and specialized medical cabinetry and storage. Additional modifications such as custom flooring, mission-style seating, and flexible equipment mounting systems are intended to improve both functionality and durability in demanding operational environments.

Since 2017, Fargo Jet Center has delivered eight additional PC-12 aircraft and one Cessna Citation CJ4 to Life Flight Network.

“We are very proud to reach this milestone with Life Flight Network,” said Mike Clancy, Vice President of Technical Services at Fargo Jet Center.

“Reaching 10 aircraft modifications with Fargo Jet Center is a testament to a partnership built on shared standards and trust,” added Chad McCracken, Senior Director of Maintenance at Life Flight Network.

Fargo Jet Center recently announced the delivery of a newly configured Learjet 45 fixed-wing air ambulance to Canadian air ambulance provider Airmedic.
