Hi Everyone...
Last spring I spent a few weeks flying with Penobscot Island Air out of Owl's Head, ME. This air service flies people and goods to remote islands off the coast of Maine. Watch it here:

Thanks,

Was glad to see this video! I got to fly with them a few years back. Some awesome people work there. If I wasn't stuck with my current job, I'd love to move back to Maine and do that.

That was great! Makes me really miss New England. Lived in Vermont for eight years, learned to fly there, and loved flying the Maine coast.
Thanks!

These guys are great. I used to go over in the afternoons when it was slow at the restaurant and fly with Mike out to one of the islands. He and I would flew just about ever Sunday for an entire winter. I logged over 150 hrs that year. Kevin the owner is a great guy and a wealth of information.
Kevin, if you read this, post that video of the Mike in the 206 landing at Whitherspoons! Love you Guys!!
