A Great Flight - Well Worth It!

Published on Jun, 2024

The weather couldn't have been better, and so our flight was particularly great. Our pilot was fantastic, knowledgeable, and very personable. He was also very professional. I appreciated watching him do his pre-flight checks on the aircraft. That was reassuring given the somewhat "fly by night" impression the limited signage, dirt path to their building, and overall impression I got of the building exterior. I needn't have been concerned. Our pilot, though apparently in his 30s, clearly knew his business and his aircraft. We felt very safe. The flight itself was simply gorgeous. We went on June 8th when there was still a lot of snow covering the glaciers. Nevertheless, the views were spectacular and we saw some bits of the glaciers, including many glacial crevasses. Highly recommend.

WOW!! incredible experience

Published on Jun, 2024

This was one of the best experiences I have ever had!!!! Our pilot, Kyle, was incredible. Super knowledgable and was able to explain everything we saw and respond to all our questions. They were really friendly and flexible with our needs given the visibility. Would 100% recommend!!! amazing way to see the mountains from a different perspective

Fantastic tour by an awesome pilot!

Published on May, 2024

Fantastic tour! Our pilot Dylan was such a pro. He narrated the entire tour, pointed out tons of interesting sights, and gave us lots of advice on how to explore further from the ground. Oh, and the scenery was spell binding. Could not ask for a better experience.

Highly Recommend

Published on May, 2024

Kyle (our pilot) and the whole experience was amazing. The team was very responsive to our inquiries and the booking experience was very easy. Kyle made our trip unforgettable, will definitely do again if we ever find ourselves in the area again.

A Great Way to See the Local Geography

Published on Oct, 2023

This was a wonderful experience and an incredible way to see the local area. The weather that day was absolutely perfect; clear skies, no smoke. The pilot was very knowledgeable of the local geography and he "greased" the landing on our return. I would highly recommend taking a flight.
