Aircraft may be chartered for purposes of scenery viewing, aerial photography, power line patrol, pipeline patrol or any form of aerial or wildlife survey. Any one of the following charter aircraft may be used. The favoured rates are by the hour or a combination of hourly and mileage if the work is to be done a distance away.
People or cargo wishing to go from Point A to Point B should favour the mileage rate.
There is a Layover Charge for waiting time of $15 per hour for the C172 aircraft and $20 per hour for the Twin Comanche (PA30). Free waiting time is credited on each charter equal to the flying time. The client is responsible for meals and lodging for the pilot if necessary.
