Firefighting Experience Evergreen maintains an unparalleled commitment to protect resources from the threat of fire. Evergreen’s diverse fleet of 54 light, medium and heavy lift helicopters, 30 of which are available for fire suppression, allow it to perform firefighting missions anywhere in the world. For over four decades Evergreen has supported private, state and federal fire suppression efforts. The Department of Defense, US Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, Department of Interior Office of Aircraft Services, Canadian Interagency Forest Fire Center and numerous State Governments all have relied on Evergreen’s services. Our aerial fire suppression traditions actually go back to 1924, with Missoula, Montana-based Johnson's Flying Services, which Evergreen purchased in 1975. In 1931, Johnson was awarded the first USFS Prime Contract for aerial fire work and introduced the first ‘smoke jumper’ aircraft, the famous Ford Tri-Motor. It maintained Forest Service contracts into the 1970s. Johnson’s experience and tradition of excellence were inculcated into Evergreen’s own ‘quality without compromise’ motto. Evergreen’s own firefighting expertise began with the founding of Evergreen Helicopters, Inc. (EHI) which, since 1960, has developed new application-specific aircraft configurations for fire suppression missions.
