Important Information
Will we be able to communicate with the pilot while we're flying?

Absolutely! The entire trip will be narrated by your pilot and your voice-activated headset will allow you to speak to the pilot and other passengers any time.

How many people will be in the plane? Is it roomy inside?

In our aircraft, there are 5 passenger seats and the pilot. Some flights may be full while others may have just a few people. While this is generally thought of as a small plane, the Piper Seneca is actually quite roomy inside.

Will it be cold in the airplane?

The airplane has a heater and at our normal altitudes, the air is only slightly cooler than on the ground, yet if you tend to get cold, it's a good idea to bring a sweatshirt or light jacket.

What to bring on the flight tour?

We recommend: A sweatshirt or light jacket Sunglasses (or prescription eye-wear) A well-charged camera Bottled water, if desired Due to limited space bags can be stored with our team you fly

What about bad weather?

If the weather conditions are such that we cannot provide an enjoyable tour, we will work with your schedule to select an alternate day or flight time.

Will we see wildlife from the air?

Unfortunately, we can't guarantee a spotting. Moose, caribou, Dall sheep, and bears are all possible to see from the plane but each trip is different. Much of it depends on how good you are at spotting animals from above.

Can the pilot accept gratuities?

Yes. While not expected, it's certainly appreciated.

Can you take us somewhere else besides the standard tour?

Yes. Stampede Aviation is able to offer charter and air taxi services to take you just about anywhere in the continental US and Canada- weather permitting. If you have a special request for a custom tour we can take your request and work to build a customized experience.

Is there a weight limit for passengers?

We don't have a specific weight limit; we operate based upon the overall weight of the aircraft. Before you fly, we will ask for your current weight. Please answer honestly as our team must do the correct calculations to ensure the flight is safe. We promise that our team will protect your information. If you don't feel comfortable at any time, pull us aside and we'll ensure your privacy.
