About PSAIR Group
Public Safety Aviation Intelligence & Research—built to organize a market that is important, fragmented, and often difficult to see clearly.
What PSAIR is
PSAIR Group is a public-safety aviation market-intelligence and research business focused on understanding who operates, what they operate, how programs are funded, where fleets are in their lifecycle, what agencies are buying, and where the market is moving.
Researcher and author

Jesse Thrush brings firefighting, law-enforcement and aviation-program experience to PSAIR’s public-source research and writes The PSAIR Brief.
PSAIR is independent public-source research. Its analysis is separate from outside employment and does not represent an employer, agency or vendor. No employer or agency endorsement is implied. Read the independence policy.
Why it exists
Public-safety aviation information is distributed across agency websites, budgets, procurement portals, meeting agendas, FAA records, capital plans, contracts, job postings, and industry sources. PSAIR organizes those fragments into a research model that can be verified, updated, and used for better decisions.
How PSAIR works
Research records identify source dates, evidence strength and unresolved questions. A dated edition is a snapshot; purchasing it does not include future editions or ongoing monitoring. Registration is not automatically treated as operational status. Budget requests are separated from adopted funding and executed contracts. Contract ceilings, capital projects, and recurring operating costs are not combined without a clear accounting basis.
Current coverage
Coverage differs by state and edition. A Market Brief does not imply a full statewide aircraft inventory. Browse the state map for current report options, and review each edition’s scope before purchasing.
