Dion Edgar moved from the commercial sector to rescue services mid 2022. Dion has a large amount of flying hours behind him and extensive experience flying in varied conditions. He’s worked in the past as a pilot within the forestry and mining industry, as well as flying to fishing vessels out at sea.
Originally from the deep south, he began his career as a shepherd and saved as much as he could from shearing to become a helicopter pilot. Dion may call Nelson home now but he still rolls his R’s and wears his gumboots around the hangar.
