    Join us for a return flight from Kodiak Airport to Heitman Lake for a 30 minute flight each way in a fabulous 1940s vintage Grumman Widgeon operated by Harvey Flying Service. Back in the summer of 2007 our video camera man Chris Mak paid a special visit to this operation to film it for JetFlix TV. This is a preview video but you can stream the full 30 minute show at www.jetflix.tv

    brings back memories of 1954 working for Link Aviation converting from Ranger to Lycoming engines in Endicott NY. I was 19.

      The Widgeon is pretty rare today. You can see them in Alaska but elsewhere they are slim pickins.

      Thank you for sharing this very interesting personal insight. One of these years I would like to go up to Alaska to visit the float planes as I was last there in 1996.
