Training looks a little different at McMurray Aviation.
Float training on the Snye, the kind of northern aviation skills you can’t exactly learn from a textbook. 😉
Because around here, the runway sometimes has ripples.

Safe to say time really does fly around here. 😉

Winter maintenance? You could say it’s… riveting. 😉

Under the floor of a Cessna 208B Caravan is a full structural grid. Lightweight, but built to handle serious loads.

To replace the flooring, every panel gets removed, the underlying structure is inspected, and then it all goes back together… one rivet at a time.
This job? Close to 1,000 rivets.

Not glamorous—but it’s what keeps WRK flying safely all season long.

We heard other cities get Chinooks… so we figured Fort McMurray should too. 💁‍♀️✈️

Okay okay , theirs melt snow.
Ours hover over it. 😉

When a CH-47 Chinook drops by and your little Cessna just casually holds the line like it’s no big deal.

Northern aviation: built different.
