Summary

The April 2006 Beaver Beacon described Island Airways’ FAA Certified Repair Station designation, which the company said it had received in 2004 after a multi-phase certification and inspection process. The profile also described expanded charter services, three Northern Michigan-based aircraft, and aircraft types available through the charter department.

Evidence limits

This is a company profile and self-description published in the newspaper, not an FAA certificate, maintenance log, charter operating record, or independent verification of the listed aircraft and services.
