Charter Details
C001: Auto Parts There are a number of auto parts suppliers in and around the Traverse City area of North Western Michigan. Since the automobile assembly plants are located in the Detroit Metro area, it is necessary to ship the manufactured parts from Traverse City to Detroit at least once per day. The flights will leave Traverse City Cherry Capital airport (KTVC) and arrive at Willow Run Airport (KYIP), located west of Detroit. The longest runway at KTVC is only 6501 Feet, so this is not a run for any of the HEAVY freight carriers. Your flight back to KTVC will be empty, unless you can manage to acquire a payload to take back. Anyone who does so will be rewarded with a day off (sorry...all cash has to go to other operating expenses).

C060: Eastwind 2020-02 - Delivery of COVID -19 Test Kits and PPE. Pick up COVID-19 test kits from airports located close to production facilities and deliver to areas that are in need of these test kits. As well as the test kits the country is in need of masks, gowns and other PPE to be delivered around the US. The need is for small cargo airlift from the regionals to larger runways where larger flights can originate and move to other points as needed. EastWind 02-2020 will be designated for this effort. To start to move the masks and other PPE stuff to government strategic storage as well as to localities, a need exists for airlift from 3M's sites to other points in the country. From Aberdeen, flights to Fargo, Sioux Falls, Sioux City, and Minneapolis St Paul. For Columbia, Missouri points could include Kansas City, St Louis, and Chicago. the other two can originate from Newark, New Jersey and from JFK in New York. Valley is outside of Omaha, Nebraska and the city airport has long runways. For the purposes of this EastWind, Government Strategic Reserve locations are Atlanta Hartsfield, Alliance Fort Worth, and McCarran in Las Vegas, Nevada. Airlift can go from the collectors to these locations or to any location needed domestically. This is attractive for all sorts of flight durations as the feeders are small cargo transports, and short flights. The movement to other points are a little longer. we are putting a category code for flights on the web site today for you to use when doing the flights. This has the potential to go internationally as things start to open back up. WestWind Cargo Hubs near New York, Atlanta, Ft Worth, and Chicago are being used. Anyone is welcome to join in and make some of these flights. The airlift is N95 Masks, gowns and other protective garb used around hospitals.

C061: Blue Crab Delivery Maryland and Louisiana are 2 locations in the continental United States known for their great blue crab harvests. West Wind Cargo Division has just signed lucrative contracts with blue crab suppliers in both states to transport live blue crabs to points all over the US, Caribbean, & Central America. For Maryland you will pick up your cargo at KBWI, for Louisiana your cargo will be waiting at KMSY. Our cargo division mechanics have retrofit WWA cargo planes with salt water tanks and circulation pumps that will keep the crabs alive during their journey with us. Pilots must take into consideration the amount of water in the tanks when loading their cargo and make adjustments where necessary to ensure the safe operation of the aircraft. Each of the tanks you will be transporting will be able to hold up to a maximum of 1000 lbs of live crab, with the weight of the tank, pump and water that brings each tank total to 9,500 lbs. Please add 8,500 to your ZFW for each tank you will place on board and only count crab cargo in your flight dispatch. If you are flying to local destinations coolers or baskets may be used on smaller aircraft that cannot fit the live tanks. Crabs will live up to an hour out of water so you better not get stuck behind a line of planes waiting to take off!!

Charter Details

C001: Auto Parts

There are a number of auto parts suppliers in and around the Traverse City area of North Western Michigan. Since the automobile assembly plants are located in the Detroit Metro area, it is necessary to ship the manufactured parts from Traverse City to Detroit at least once per day. The flights will leave Traverse City Cherry Capital airport (KTVC) and arrive at Willow Run Airport (KYIP), located west of Detroit. The longest runway at KTVC is only 6501 Feet, so this is not a run for any of the HEAVY freight carriers. Your flight back to KTVC will be empty, unless you can manage to acquire a payload to take back. Anyone who does so will be rewarded with a day off (sorry...all cash has to go to other operating expenses).

C002: Auto Transmissions

The Hydromatic Transmission Plant in Ypsilanti, Michigan is supplying automatic transmissions to the General Motors Lordstown, Ohio assembly plant. Two shipments a week will be flown from Willow Run Airport (KYIP) to Cleveland Hopkins (KCLE). Fortunately, this is a short hop, which will allow for a light fuel load to compensate for those heavy transmissions.
