Tylor Johnson

Legacy Foundation

Tylor Johnson lived a life fueled by passion and purpose. As a third-generation aerial applicator, he soared above the landscapes he loved, dedicated to both the craft of flying and the vital role of supporting agriculture.

Tragically, Tylor's life was cut short in a devastating accident when his plane struck a guy wire during a routine flight. It was a harsh reminder of the dangers faced by aerial applicators every day. In the wake of this tragedy, the Tylor Johnson Legacy Foundation was established to honor Tylor's memory and advocate for increased safety measures that protect other pilots and continue his legacy of care and commitment to the community.

Tylor was known for his infectious energy, unwavering optimism, and the remarkable ability to inspire everyone around him. He believed in the power of community and was a driving force in bringing people together.
