Chilly Turnagain Arm

The Turnagain Arm on the south side of Anchorage is privy to the worlds second largest tide! So no matter how chilly or down right frozen the rest of the state gets, the Turnagain Arm will not freeze. 
However, if you fly over the powerful surging waters during the heart of a winter chill you will see giant ice boulders en masse and often causing log jams in the corners of the inlet, or being pushed right out of the ocean onto it's banks.

This, my friends, is not the time to be out on your paddle board - you will be crushed. 

This is the time for a beautiful flight-tour! Fly with us around the inlet and take in the outstanding strength of the wild, untamable ocean. We do flight tours all year round so when you're ready for a beautiful scenery safari, give us a call: 907-345-2228

The Alaskan Northern Lights

 We love winter because the skies dance in neon and the colors move like magic.
It doesn't happen every day, but when it happens it's spectacular! Come take a look-see.
Thank you Andrew Rowland for this shot!

Bush Flying 101: Checking in for your flight at LPA

When you arrive at our Anchorage office for your flight, you'll see this sign...
Go left to enter our Freight Room. A staff member will weight your freight, mark it with a destination code, add your name, and if needed, add a FRAGILE, CHILL or FREEZE sticker. 
Then your groceries and luggage will be carefully moved to our shelves, fridge or freezer for safe keeping until they're loaded on the aircraft. 

LPA has a large in floor scale that accommodates our carts, bulky items,
and hundreds of pounds, so we're able to weigh and move your cargo efficiently.
Once you hand your freight over to a LPA staff member you can go to the office and finish checking in.

Then kick back and relax in our comfy waiting room, watch planes on the ramp and runway, watch tv, shop at the LPA store, read a magazine, tell the staff your best joke, or do a magic trick!
We just love that kind of stuff.
