- The airline announced $61 adult round-trip tickets from August 31 through September 5, limited to one round trip per person, plus September 1 and September 4 cookouts and raffles at Charlevoix Municipal and Welke Airports. The operator later stated that McPhillips Flying Service dated to 1945 and merged with Welke Aviation in the mid-1980s; the earlier newspaper record is stronger for the merger chronology.forum · www.beaverislandforum.com · 00 · t000725
