Chris Bailey

Chris has served as a Pararescueman (PJ) and rescue helicopter pilot in the United States Air Force and Alaska Air National Guard since 2006. He has conducted Search & Rescue operations and austere medicine in Iraq, Afghanistan, Africa, and Syria, as well as countless civil SARs across Alaska and the Lower 48.

As both a pilot and rescue technician, Chris has over 17 years experience performing mission planning, risk mitigation, logistics coordination, and perhaps most importantly…expectation management. When crafting a Once-In-A-Lifetime trip to Alaska, these skills are essential to success!

He has been flying small Cessnas and Pipers on floats, wheels, and skis throughout Alaska since 2016. His passion for flying friends and family across the wilderness has grown to incorporate the public at large. Please don’t hesitate to express your dreams, as he would love to make them come true!
