With more than 30 different highly-trained and specialized units, you can be confident that a career with the Sonoma County Sheriff's Office will be anything but monotonous. The Sheriff's Office Helicopter Unit was founded in 1974 and currently provides law enforcement, firefighting, search and rescue, and medical transport services. Given the size and rugged terrain of the County, the Helicopter Unit is an invaluable asset to Sonoma County residents as well as visitors, and has received national recognition for their proficiency in performing complex rescue techniques. The Unit currently responds to an average of 800 missions annually, and performs more rescues than any other single helicopter program in the country. The Helicopter Unit operates Henry 1, a county-owned Bell 407GXP four bladed, single turbine engine powered helicopter. Henry 1 is based at the Charles M. Schultz (Sonoma County Airport) in Santa Rosa and can be flown with a single pilot and configured for up to five passengers or - in the EMS role - three crew members and a patient. The unit consists of a Sergeant (Supervisor), tactical flight officers (Deputies), 2 helicopter pilots, and several extra-help paramedics. Henry 1 is typically staffed and on-duty 10 hours a day, but crew members carry a pager the remaining 14 hours and will respond for emergency call-outs. Due to its nationally recognized rescue skills, Henry 1 is occasionally requested for rescues and other emergencies outside of the county where no helicopter program with matching capabilities exists.
