Osprey in Saskatoon, 838 DQ-KVV Departs Back to Fiji, 921 C-GVAT Cancelled to Nepal


Although the fire situation in Saskatchewan has improved considerably (126 wildfires are currently burning with 504 having now been declared out this season) the La Ronge based operators have been hit particularly hard. Osprey Wings continue to use Saskatoon, and two Twin Otters are seen below this morning with thanks to Dale Tiedeman.
