I wonder if these folks are a little late. The MB medevac scene is getting pretty saturated again. Fast Air, Perimeter, and Beaver all expanded after Skyward folded. Missinippi, not sure if they are a spin off, but they're around too. Unless some company is trying to set up an independant contract medevac nurse company. That would be pretty interesting.

Sounds like Manitoba health is hiring someone to run the program, not some operator to fly patients. Hence i would not expect to find an OC.

There will be more companies opening in Winnipeg in the not too distant future because Winnipeg airport is being developed. There will be a leading-edge, high tech terminal built here and because of that many offices, warehouses and retail centres will be developed in the area.

Heard an operator out of YAV (Fishermen's Express enough of a clue) was looking at a KA 100 to base in YIV....

Whats it doing sitting on the ground .. you don't make much money doing that .. :lol:

I knew of another company that leased a Cheyenne and it sat on the ground for a couple months I believe? .. I still believe that plane caused the companies hardships .. not to mention the owners thirst for booze .. the company was Pim Air ..

Don't follow the same foot prints ..
