BOZEMAN — Think about your typical day at the office. You might get to work in the morning and pour a cup of coffee. Well, for the folks at Bridger Aerospace, their day at work looks a little different.
“My 9-5? People use the phrase ‘putting out fires.’ Well, that's what we actually do,” says Sam Davis.
Sam Davis is the CEO of Bridger Aerospace. Based in Bozeman, these firefighters provide air support for wildfires year-round—and not just in Montana.
“This year, we’ve flown everywhere from Tennessee to California for the Palisades fire. From Texas to Alaska,” shares Sam.
Bridger Aerospace was founded in 2014, but the real firefighting didn’t start until 2020, when they built a fleet of six CL-415EAF Super Scoopers.
“We own the largest private fleet of scoopers in the world,”
Sam
