Air Service Gets
Underway Sept, 22
Northern Aviation will begin
regular scheduled passenger and
freight service between Nome and
Bethel on Sept. 22 under the
Certificate recently awarded by
the Alaska Public Service Com
mission.
Tiie initial service will feature
two flights weekly, on Mondays
and Fridays, with the Aero Com
mander 680. This aircraft, a super
charged light twin-engine trans
port places Nome and Bethel less
than an horn and a half apart,
thereby furnishing for the first
time, a convenient link between
die two largest communities in
western Alaska.
Service from the north coast
and Seward Peninsula to the low
er Yukon, Kuskokwim and Bristol
Bay areas can be trimmed from
days to hours and inter-community
services for many businesses will
be available for the first time.
Dick Galleher, owner of North
ern Aviation, has flown the Ber
ing Coast from Bristol Bay to
Cape Lisboume since 1951 and has
operated in Nome as an air taxi
operator since 1957. His charter
service is the only one in Alaska
approved by the Federal Aviation
Agency for night and instrument
operation, and with the Aero
Commander 680 he brings to this
route the fastest and highest per
forming light twin-engine aircraft
in the air today. This plane with
! its all weather capability has
played an active part as an aerial
ambulance in a number of mid
night emergency flights to remote
villages and military Installations
that are without hospital facili
ties, and has been used, with some
success, to visually identify cer
tain Bering Sea shipping traffic.
Northern Aviation in Nome and
the Bethel Charter Service can
be contacted for freight and pas
senger information.
