Phoenix Aviation, which also owns modern aircraft repair and maintenance facilities at Wilson Airport, said aviation was a highly regulated and complex industry. Phoenix has five jets and three turbo propeller aircraft for medical evacuations, which are usually available on a 24-hour basis. The company's 24-hour operations control centre (OCC) is responsible for flight planning, flight coordination, flight following and dispatch of all Phoenix Aviation flights. Phoenix boasts a 25-year history of air ambulance experience in hostile and non-hostile areas and operates the service as a one-stop-shop for all aeromedical needs.
