Founded in 1999, Priority 1 Air Rescue (P1AR) provides a range of special mission training for search-and-rescue and air ambu- lance services, including hoist SAR classroom training that progresses to synthetic training with the use of hoist procedural towers (HPTs) and virtual simulators using relevant role equipment.


In this image, US Coast Guard flight mechanic hoist operator trainees—in flight suits—will experience both sides of a res- cue: being pulled up in the rescue basket several times before moving to operate the hoist controls from the doorway of the P1AR MH-60T Jayhawk training HPT ‟airframe.”


The company trains air- crew members from various domestic and international military branches in addi- tion to local and regional law enforcement agencies and SAR operators worldwide at its training facilities in Mesa, Arizona, and Bordeaux, France.
