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.
