Our Partner

Thunderun Aviation is an independent company, but we maintain an exclusive operating relationship with Mercy Flight WNY. Under this unique arrangement, Mercy Flight's dispatchers coordinate our flights, and handle all necessay arrangements for "bedside-to-bedside" transport.

This includes setting up ground ambulance at departure and destination locations, assigning appropriate medical air crews and providing their equipment, and attending to every detail from the bed that the patient is in to the patient's bed at the receiving facility.
