You have decent time for a starting point. Check out Wings Over Kississing. They have bases in Flin Flon, Thompson, and Stony Rapids. And other bases over Northern Manitoba & Saskatchewan. It’s a very well run 703 operation, with lots of float aircraft. Probably just as many on the “landlubber “ sid...

I hope that helps.

Back in the day... ( 20 years, to be exact) there was one company in northern Manitoba that did not have the rolling duty day( or whatever you call it). The aircraft where staffed 24/7 with two crews. You did not duty out away from base. If need be, you called in a crew early, but you did not duty o...
