Commando Cargo Hauling Service Through Powerful Snowstorm

Featured Replies

Shalom and greetings all my pals,

Representing a Commando cargo hauling service from CYZF Yellowknife Airport located in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada to CYLK Lutselk'e Airport located 1.1 nautical miles northeast of Lutselk'e, Canada where there is chance that caribou may be found on the runway and the local terrain makes this a difficult aerodrome to use in snowstorms.

Finished loading cargo goods into the plane with nice background view of moon

Great! I take it seeing as Buffalo Joe has stepped back from the operation a little, he's given you the job of flying the Commando to day? :cool:
