About our Logo

In October of 1994, a Native owl mask was given to Grant Aviation to show appreciation for numerous life saving efforts in the villages of the Yukon River Delta near Emmonak. Back then there was not an air ambulance or medevac service set up like it is today. The villagers used to call Grant for medevac services all hours of the day and often in the middle of the night. Grant would transport patients so that they could receive emergency medical care. The village of Emmonak gave a Native owl mask to Grant Aviation to show their appreciation for the lives saved. Later this mask became our company logo. Today Grant Aviation provides air ambulance services in the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta Region.
