AIR SHASTA ROTOR & WING, INC.

AIR SHASTA ROTOR & WING, INC. specializes in on-call helicopter operations and specialized air support services for federal land management and wildlife conservation missions. The company provides scheduled and emergency charter flights using light to medium rotorcraft, delivering personnel and equipment to remote, often rugged terrain for wildlife monitoring, animal capture, and infrastructure maintenance. Their technical expertise includes precision aerial census operations for wild horse and burro populations, aerial trapping support, and maintenance of airborne communication repeater sites in national parks. They also deliver critical aircraft maintenance services—including A-checks, engine data downloads, and deferred discrepancy reviews—ensuring airworthiness under stringent federal operational standards. Their ability to operate in high-altitude, low-visibility environments with minimal ground support distinguishes them as a trusted provider for mission-critical airborne operations in sensitive ecological zones. The contractor maintains a consistent, long-term relationship with the Department of Agriculture and the Department of the Interior, primarily supporting the U.S. Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management. For the USDA, they conduct routine flight operations for forest health assessments and equipment transport; for the DOI, they execute wildlife census missions and manage helicopter support for wild horse and burro management programs across Nevada, California, and other western states. Their work is characterized by recurring, mission-essential contracts that demand reliability, regulatory compliance, and rapid response readiness. Their primary focus lies in NAICS 481211 (nonscheduled charter passenger air transportation) and 488190 (other air transportation support activities), positioning them as a niche provider of integrated aerial services for federal land and wildlife agencies. They specialize in mission-tailored flight operations that combine aviation proficiency with ecological mission awareness. As a Women-Owned Small Business and Woman-Owned Business certified contractor based in Redding, California, AIR SHASTA ROTOR & WING, INC. leverages its small business status to deliver agile, responsive services tailored to the unique demands of federal land management agencies across the western United States.
