Bozeman Aviation Company Helps People Stranded from Yellowstone Flooding
MT – Grayson Sperry, the owner of Ridgeline Aviation based in Bozeman, Montana flew his Pilatus PC-12 to help those stranded by the Yellowstone River flooding. Sperry’s day started with text messages and videos from friends in the Gardiner area. He knew he needed to help. The pickup point was at the Gardiner airport along the banks of the Yellowstone. Ridgeline Aviation was picking up locals and taking some people separated from their homes back into Gardiner. They were also dropping supplies. Sperry delivered food and water to bring back to Gardiner for those still stuck in their homes. Sperry had a list of over 80 people that were seeking transport out of the flooded town.
Sperry says he has never seen destruction like this along the canyon. While it’s not just Ridgeline pitching in, many companies are rallying for relief efforts.
