Lewiston, ID Charter Service

Can anyone recomend a charter service in the Lewiston area? Next week I need to drop my plane in LWS and get shuttled to Slate Creek, about a 30 minute flight. I called Camas Air Service in Graingville, but they are down to one plane and can not take me.

Hello,
Call Interstate Air in nearby Pullman, Washington and tell them James recomended them. They have everything from a CE-340, CE-207, CE-206, CE-337, and CE-182 on their 135 Air Carrier Certificate. http://inter-stateaviation.com/ISA/CharterInfo.aspx

Good Luck,

Re: Lewiston, ID Charter Service

I'll second Inter-state aviation in Pullman. They have a ton of aircraft and pilots, and they were a pleasure to deal with the few times I've been there.

However, if it were me, cheapskate that I am :D , I'd contact Dick Roberts who is probably the best flight instructor in Lewiston. His email is [email protected], and his phone # is 208-305-7829. Then, I'd go get some instruction in his plane during a flight to Slate Creek. I'm guessing it would be a whole lot cheaper, plus you could get some good practice under the hood or get your biennial flight review or something.

How many planes does it take to get you to Slate Creek :)

You would think there would be a fellow BCP up in that area that was looking for a reason to go fly :?

Of Course, you pay for the fuel.

Sky Truck,

That's what I was thinking! Were I closer, I'd hook a brother up. I would think someone up that way would be looking for a reason to go for a ride. Good luck Blackrock!

Just me and no gear. Should someone be heading that way anyway, of course. :D

Like James, I would also recommend Interstate Aviation at Pullman WA. That is not very far from Lewiston. Doug Gadwa is the man to talk to.

Hey, if my plane was flyable and I was able, I'd hook a brother up!! Just pay your fair share for fuel. Like you said, "any reason to go flying"! I have a friend that lives in White Bird, too. Be good to visit them.
