Ep. 17 - Rotary Wing Pilot Kenan Bahadir

July 07, 2025 • Arizona Department of Public Safety Public Affairs Unit • Season 1 • Episode 17

We’ve explored the AZDPS Aviation Bureau in two previous episodes—hearing from a paramedic and a fixed-wing pilot—but now it’s time to take to the skies with one of our helicopter pilots. Meet State Trooper/Pilot Kenan Bahadir, one of our rotary-wing (helicopter) pilots. In this episode, he shares the experiences that led him to this career path, along with another passion he brings to the job: using his camera skills and social media to promote the Department and our Aviation Bureau!
