OUR MISSION:  The Airborne International Response Team (AIRT) was founded with a single vision; to provide innovative airborne capabilities that help people prepare for, respond to, and recover from complex emergencies and major disasters.

​

Or simply stated; to #getup

​

WHO WE ARE:  We are a team of subject matter experts in various disciplines including aviation, aerospace, photogrammetry, GIS and  thermography, engineering, emergency management, public safety, telemedicine, traume care, and more. 

​

WHAT WE DO:  An earthquake strikes Peru, a tsunami hits Fiji, an F5 tornado plows through Oklahoma, a major hurricane makes landfall somewhere in the Caribbean.  Or maybe a child is simply lost in the woods as darkness approaches with frantic parents pleading for assistance.  This is when AIRT members #getup

​We are building the World's Largest Air Force®, a global network of specialized teams with the training and skills to accomplish mission-critical tasks across the preparedness, mitigation, response, and recovery phases of significant events, complex emergencies, and major disasters.​

AIRT rapidly assembles task forces and strike teams for pre-planned and emergency deployments based on the projected mission requirements for each mission.

​

With the support of our partners, AIRT bridges the gap between government, industry, and academia surrounding all phases of disaster management.
