Our Chief Pilot, Angie Griffin, has an impeccable safety record and a passion for introducing novice aviators to helicopter flight. She holds certificates as:
- Commercial Rotor Pilot
- Private Single Engine Airplane Pilot
Angie has operating experience in some of the world's largest, and busiest, class B airports. She has completed more than 100 missions, in various environments, including international helicopter missions to:
- Mexico
- El Salvador
- Guatemala
- Nicaragua
- Costa Rica
She was nicknamed the "Tour Queen" of Atlanta by fellow pilots because of the large number of sight-seeing tours she has flown all over metro-Atlanta and her ability to put the first time flyer at ease. She has also completed many missions transporting professional photographers, journalists, real estate professionals, VIPs, executives and investors. She can often be seen flying at air shows & festivals and cow dropping — dropping stuffed cows over customer appreciation parties for the Chick-fil-a Corporation.
Angie's work experience is diverse and wide-ranging. Holding a Masters degree in Psychology and a specialization in Organizational Development, she has worked as a family counselor, Management and Organizational Development Consultant for corporate and educational systems and as a small business owner.
Angie's greatest delight is taking people on tours over beautiful areas and introducing novice passengers to helicopter flight. Through Dragonfly Copters, Angie is on a mission to broaden horizons by creating accessible helicopter opportunities. She believes with this accessibility comes a responsibility to empower others and hopes to use helicopters to expand accessibility to those currently without access.
