A Note about Weather
Conditions
We want you to have
a safe and enjoyable ride!
Call first if you have concerns about the
weather. (218) 682-2006
We fly when clouds are at least 1000 feet
above the ground, winds are between 0 - 15
mph, and there is no precipitation.
Other considerations:
- We
will not fly if there are storms in the
area.
- Thunderstorms
must be at least 25 miles away and moving
away from our area.
- Excessive
heat and humidity can lead to poor
aircraft performance. Reduced passengers
loads can sometimes improve performance.
- Seaplanes
generally do not fly at night. We'll need
time to return to base after the last
flight of the evening.
I look forward to flying with you,
John Justad
