History
Air Evac was formed in 1969. The company operates under Part 135 of the Federal Aviation Regulations as an on-demand, air charter provider, specializing in air medical flights. Air Evac, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of PHI, Inc. (formerly known as Petroleum Helicopters, Inc)of Lafayette, Louisiana. Phi, Inc. is a leading provider of helicopter services to the Oil and Gas and medical fields and is listed on NASDAQ.

Services
Although the company has several Cessna Conquest aircraft to be put in use when a patient needs to be flown beyond helicopter range, Air Evac relies heavily on their helicopters, as most of their rescues involve landings in streets and avenues that are usually filled with electrical devices, police cars, fire apparatus, and bystanders.

They usually transport helicopter passengers to the nearest hospital and take their airplane passengers to the nearest airport, then drive the patients to a hospital.
