Small Planes FLY EIA too!

Toured EIA last week. Got a look at the General Aviation area. 

Here's what  I learned.

There's lots of hanger space available.

Inside Refurbished Ward Air Hanger  120,000 Sq Feet of maintenance and parking space. 

Sufficient space to accommodate a 747, or a  'fleet' of small aircraft.

                                     General Aviation Tarmac

Suncor is major user of EIA's General Aviation facility.

Private Air Charter companies like  Calgary based Air Sprint   and SunWest use the facility. 

Kevin Costner  flew in, and out this weekend, on his was to Big Valley Jamboree.

Passenger & Cargo operations like  Canadian North links the North through EIA.
Six NHL teams, including the Oilers, use this facility . Eskimos use it too.

Nice tidy business.
