AKC013: The St. Paul Island Run

Everyday our pilots make their way out to Saint Paul Island (PASN) via King Salmon (PAKN). Our main Cargo on this run is fish and crab from both Saint Paul and King Salmon but as we're the only airline serving Saint Paul on a daily basis with Cargo aircraft.

On our outbound leg, we fly to King Salmon (PAKN) to drop off a small amount of cargo for the local residents and businesses. From King Salmon we then fly vital supplies to St. Paul Island (PASN). These include the usual cargo of mail, food and fuel but also supplies for the local crab fishermen, medical supplies boat maintenence and esssential supplies and resources for the TDX Power wind power generator.

From St. Paul Island (PASN) we pick up supplies for TDX Power and a huge amount of crab for the global market. Pilot's then fly to King Salmon (PAKN) to pick up fish, particularly salmon for the global market. Alaskan crab and salmon is extremely expensive so pilot's are asked to treat their loads carefully, making soft landings and keeping damage to a minimum.
