  3. Is there special consideration when flying in or out of Warner and Lorna Lakes?  

    Yes, due to adverse wind conditions later in the day, it is best to book flights in or out of Warner or Lorna Lakes early in the morning (recommend time is 8-9 am). If upon arrival, a safe landing cannot be made, Spruce Lake will be used as an alternate.
  4. Is there special restrictions when flying with mountain bikes?  Yes. Four people with bikes and packs fit well in the plane. Big downhill bikes and bikes with triple clamp forks should be avoided.

  5. What is the charter price?  The charter price is the cost for the whole aircraft to fly from point A to point B, regardless of the number of passengers.
