JOHNSTOWN Fulton County Planning Director Scott Henze recently released more details about a new hangar project at the County Airport to support Glen-based LifeNet/Air Methods Air Medical Transport Services’ move there.
LifeNet NY operates 11 air medical transport bases throughout New York state. The firm’s parent company is Air Methods of Greenwood Village, Co.
Henze related new details of the project to the Board of Supervisors’ Public Works Committee. He said LifeNet desires to relocate its town of Glen base to the Fulton County Airport on Route 67.
“LifeNet has quite an extensive staff,” Henze said.
He said LifeNet identified these staffing needs with the move, which has been planned for over two years: Two to three full-time mechanics during normal business hours; and three air medical transport staff to include a pilot, nurse and medic around the clock, 365 days a year.
