Our aircraft
A DeHavilland Beaver and two Found Bush Hawks give us useful choices for passengers, freight and remote floatplane work.
N46DG
The quintessential Alaska bush plane—roomy, capable and well suited to larger passenger groups and heavier charter loads.
N818ES & N705BH
Four large doors, a steel-tube cabin structure, bubble windows and a cantilever wing make the Bush Hawk a remarkably practical Kodiak floatplane.
Choosing the right airplane
Group size and baggage help us choose a plane. These examples are planning guides; actual loading depends on passenger weights, gear, weather and conditions.
*A four-guest Bush Hawk scenic flight uses its slightly forward middle seat, which has views out both sides. We normally book the nine window seats across a Beaver and Bush Hawk first.
Inside the cabin
Our Beaver has six window seats and one middle seat. Each Bush Hawk has three window seats and one offset middle seat. We normally book the nine window seats across a Beaver and Bush Hawk; middle seats are available by arrangement.
Lightspeed noise-cancelling headsets included for every guest.
Seating and aircraft assignments depend on safe loading, passenger weights, group size and conditions.

Maintenance
Kingfisher’s aircraft receive required annual and 100-hour inspections, along with routine engine, propeller and component maintenance. During the off-season they are housed in heated hangars for detailed inspection and service.
