The Dakota was airborne again. At long last. But it was the shortest season of round trips ever. Now the aircraft is being rolled in for winter technical maintenance.

The insurance scheme that provides coverage for aircraft and passengers when flying will cease for this year at the end of October. Weather permitting, you may see and hear the aircraft in the sky a few more times this fall, and these will be priority pilot training sessions that have been postponed due to the aircraft's previous technical status.

The Dakota is now in order, and fortunately we were able to fly five trips with passengers during the fine autumn weekends, October 7, 8 and 15.

The next opportunity to fly will be in the spring.

The website here will be updated with further information.

There are still many gift cards out there that have not been redeemed. Regardless of when they are purchased, they will remain valid for the next few seasons.
