Providing rapid Emergency Airlift Support when it matters most.
Delivering urgent relief to those in need through our disaster relief services, including emergency airlift and rapid response airlift options.
Our Mission
Rapid Response Airlift’s mission is to deliver urgent, life-saving rescue and evacuation through emergency airlift for individuals in emergency or disaster situations. Our disaster relief services utilize aircraft and specialized rescue teams to address a wide range of scenarios, from personal emergencies to large-scale disasters.
Our founder
Jeremy Rodriguez is a former United States Army Special Operations Combat Medic with 13 years of distinguished service. He deployed five times with the elite 75th Ranger Regiment, where he provided lifesaving medical care in some of the most demanding combat environments in the world. Transitioning from ground operations to the cockpit, he went on to serve as a helicopter pilot with the 7-17 Cavalry Regiment.
Following his military career, Jeremy continued his aviation and medical service overseas as a contract helicopter pilot, conducting medical evacuations and mission support across Northwest and East Africa. His experience in high-risk, resource-limited environments underscored the urgent need for emergency airlift capabilities at home, leading him to establish Rapid Response Airlift.
Currently, Jeremy supports SpaceX cargo and astronaut recovery missions, as well as helicopter operations for the U.S. Air Force Pararescue training pipeline—missions that demand precision, speed, and reliability under pressure.
Today, as the Founder and Executive Director of Rapid Response Airlift, Jeremy integrates his expertise in emergency medicine, aviation, and crisis response to build an organization dedicated to disaster relief services, saving lives, and delivering aid when disaster strikes.
