Air North

More than two decades after production of the BAe/Hawker Siddeley (Avro) 748 ended, in 1988, a small Canadian airline, Air North—dubbed ‘Yukon’s Airline’—remains the northern hemisphere’s last scheduled operator of the ‘Hawker’, as it is known in that part of the world.
Now with Hawker Siddeley 748 aircraft, passengers can still fly Air North to Dawson City, Old Crow, Inuvik, and in season, Fairbanks.
Here the "Hawker" departs from Dawson City to Old Crow at 10:20 AM

Excellent capture Mike. I like how you managed to get motion from the propellers with a little lens flare. Nicely done.

Nice capture Mike, I like that you can see the air currents around the airplane body.
