If you pay your taxes then you are a resident whether seasonal or not. The nursing home in Bobcageon is a worst case scenario playing out. The virus was in there early before any restrictions were in place and a big chunk of the residents lived 4 to a room with only curtain dividers and they didn't separate them until last week. Its a terrible tragedy. I don't disagree with property use and them coming up. I'd be more worried about them coming into contact with some bumpkin up here and taking it back with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I can assume getting back to Anchorage from some of these tiny coastal villages is going to be an arm and a leg as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is one of the only air carriers that had daily schedules to fly in and out of most alaskan villages. Those villages are not connected by road to the main highways. Not even dirt roads.

Grant Aviation which used to be Penn Air. But Grant was bought out by Raven a year or so ago so I dont know if Grant is still flying either. I dont fly any more. Think about it all the time down here because the weather is so perfect for 10 months out of 12. Ive thought about getting an ultralite or powered glider or experimental or something. Something inexpensive but fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
