Flight for life and its colors represent a life time of countless heros responding to exigent and life changing circumstances. Don’t change the colors for brand recognition and let the legacy continue.
Also every emergency responder knows the colors and you’re never going to find a color that has better viability.
Nicholas supported: Keep Flight For Life Orange!I’ve been with the hospital for over 9 years and have seen so many changes. The biggest change of course is merging with CommonSpirit. If we want to keep the hospitals feeling like we are still a community space and not a corporation, we need to keep the helicopters the same color as they have always been. If they go pink, the communities will think “oh look, another sell out”. It is a slap in the face for the amazing legacy of FFL to be commandeered by a big corporation and then the helicopter paint color defaced, especially to electric pink and purple.
jenny supported: Keep Flight For Life Orange!As a 13 year old who lives in summit, seeing that orange A-Star rising from the hospital and flying over the lake will always be a core memory, changing it to purple and pink would not be as nostalgic to that time when I accidentally climbed into the pilots seat. KEEP FLIGHTS ORANGE!!
Benjamin supported: Keep Flight For Life Orange!I think that a large part of what inspired me to work in EMS was seeing these iconic orange helicopters flying overhead as a kid. These helicopters have flown with this scheme for decades. Why change now?
Jonah supported: Keep Flight For Life Orange!Thank you for everything you guys do. When my partner had to be taken from Cortez to Grand Junction the Flight For Life crew was amazing. Everything you guys did, from the care and dillengence in prepping her for her flight, answering my questions and keeping me calm while prepping her, to calling me as soon as they got her into the hospital in Junction, you did with care and professionalism. I would sign a 100 petitions for you guys.
Timothy supported: Keep Flight For Life Orange!The color of a fleet to meet corporate “brand alignment” strays so far from what flight for life means for me and my community in Durango, it’s insulting. That money and time can, and should, be spent in other places rather than repainting helicopters.
Garrett supported: Keep Flight For Life Orange!Common sense tells me what a waste of money! What is the end goal of the paint and marketing "change". We that honor the Flight for Life (and have used it once) know the reputable colors and expect the honored ORANGE again no reason to change.....UNLESS you intend to change the service to which I do not endorse. You have an amazing staff and PLEASE take care of them and spend your dollars on staff and life saving equipment and not a ridiculous marketing campaign. Thank you for reading
Maria supported: Keep Flight For Life Orange!Flight for life has a strong history and that history is the orange helicopter. It is iconic and well known. the color is synonymous with help, high quality care, community support, and a care for all the people they serve. As a kid I remember looking up in the sky seeing the orange helicopter and my mom telling me they were on their way to help someone. Taking away that history and community image would hurt the company not help it. CommonSpirit executives don’t understand the symbol that the orange helicopters hold in Colorado.
Nicole supported: Keep Flight For Life Orange!As a former member of the National Ski Patrol, I can assure CommonSpirit the color scheme of the Colorado Flight for Life helicopters and airplanes have played a vital key role in critical identification of the aircraft by EMS personnel as well as the SAR and CRAD Avalanche Canine Deployment units, which tirelessly and diligently train annually to comfortably embark and disembark these aircraft during critical incidents. If Karen Mahaney, Dave and Amanda Repsher, FFL pilots and others have safety concerns regarding a change to the graphics of the FFL aircraft, then don't change them.
Denise supported: Keep Flight For Life Orange!As a firefighter who relies on these services, we specifically look for the orange paint when planning the incoming chopper. If the color changes this will lead to confusion at the LZ.
Tyler supported: Keep Flight For Life Orange!You’re not alone — a community of supporters is ready to back you.
