Moscow to Wisconsin?

I was playing around on flight aware and saw this passing over Cyqt. Moscow to Boscobel Wisconsin in a Yak-142? Seems pretty regular...just curious if anyone knows what that's all about. We know how much the Americans like the Russians!! http://flightaware.com/live/flight/GZP995

Re: Fire breaks out at new Iqaluit airport terminal

$300 million is for a brand new terminal,brand new runway and aprons from what I heard. The cost of getting supplies there has to be crazy....its costs $3500 to have a vehicle shipped up there.

Re: Did Purolator dump KFL for Cargojet??

so if Cargojet will be doing the YQT-YWG run....what are they going to use? I cant see them dropping a 757 in for that....any chance they would just contract KFC to keep the Convair going?
