Company Description:

KaiserAir dates back to 1946 when it was established as the flight department of industrialist Henry J. Kaiser’s family of companies. With global operations in ship building and construction, the Kaiser companies relied heavily on a flight department that had extraordinary safety standards and was also able to perform complex missions at a moment’s notice. 

Henry was a perfectionist, who instilled standards of excellence that are still deeply infused in our corporate culture today. “Thinking Big” was one thing Henry was known for, which was a concept that even applied to the flight department. This was his thinking when he came up with the idea for the HK 1 Hercules that was intended to ferry large numbers of combat troops in World War II… this aircraft later became known
as the Spruce Goose (the H is for Hughes and K is for Kaiser!).
