Summit Air Charters Ltd.

Summit Air Charters Ltd.

Summit Air has been providing air transportation services to
various industries in Northern Canada for over 15 years.
Initially a float-plane operator in Atlin, BC, we now operate a
fleet of multi-engine turbine aircraft consisting of a Dornier
228 (a 19-passenger executive aircraft) and 3 Shorts Skyvans (a
versatile cargo transport aircraft), all fully fitted for
Instrument Flight operations.
Since January 2001, under the guidance of its original owner
James (Jamie) Tait, Summit Air was repositioned to Yellowknife,
NT to better serve the mining industry. With a permanent staff
of 8 pilots, 3 engineers, 1 technician and 3 apprentices, Summit
Air is also a Transport Canada Approved Maintenance Organization.
Our office is comfortably situated in the Diamond Air (Adlair
Aviation) hangar on the West side of the Yellowknife airport.
We have also recently constructed a non-heated aircraft hangar,
which is currently utilized to pamper Canadian Norths F-28 jet
on a nightly bases.
We continue to aim for excellence in safety standards and yet
remain efficient. Our operation is streamlined by a suite of
sophisticated electronic maintenance, dispatch, flight tracking,
and crew scheduling system. Since our relocation to
Yellowknife, we have earned the trust from our regular clients
such as BBE, Discovery Mining, G&G, Hope Bay Joint Venture,
Meridian Geoscience, and DeBeers.
