Charlevoix Airport Project

Post by Angel Welke »

We have been receiving phone calls and inquiries about the upcoming runway project at the Charlevoix Airport. During the months of September and October the main runway in Charlevoix is undergoing a resurfacing and grooving project. During the first three weeks of September all or part of the main runway will be closed. Island Airways has worked with the City of Charlevoix, the engineers, and the FAA to keep the grass runway open during this project. We do not anticipate any interruption to our flights. If you have any questions or would like more information please contact me at any of the following:

Grass strips, gotta love them Britten-Norman Islanders

The Islander is one of the best-selling commercial aircraft types produced in Europe. Often referring to the type as "The world's most versatile aircraft", Britten-Norman promotes the Islander's low direct operating costs, minimal maintenance, and its stability in flight as major attributes of the aircraft.
