Are there any other private search and rescue groups out there that use airplanes and offer their services to local and state government in emergencies?  I am not talking about volunteers with the local county sheriff-affiliated SAR group or something like that, but independent organizations.   

Have any of you interacted with these groups either during a search or otherwise?  How did it go?

CSAR (Cibola Search and Rescue) based in Albuquerque has had air assets at its disposal for quite some time.

 Air Search Rescue has had a number of members in key positions with the PA Search & Rescue Council over the years. That being said, I perdonally haven't had a lot of contact with them outside PSARC meetings or activities.
