Actually the Blain family are pretty cool. I don't think they're obscenely wealthy. Modest background and worked hard to build the business. They do a lot of work gratis. Life flights, charity, public works etc. Every Christmas eve they fly a helicopter around Billings that trails a neon Santa's sleigh and reindeer. My kids thought it was pretty amazing. Good on Ashli, and good on the Blains.
I grew up with them. They have a helicopter business in Billings, MT. AJ Blain graduated a year below me; he tragically passed away in a helicopter accident a few years ago. The family flies a light-up Santa and raindeer around the town on Christmas Eve. Dedicated family.

How do you get to be a 19 year old helicopter pilot?
