Northern Air Cargo is an exclusively cargo airline and Alaska's first scheduled cargo airline to operate. NAC began operating in 1956 with 13 DC-6s.
Fast forward to 2015 and Northern Air Cargo still operates scheduled flights all over Alaska in their two 737-300s and three 737-200s.
Virtual Northern Air Cargo simulates the scheduled cargo operations of Northern Air Cargo. Here is a list of our scheduled destinations:
Anchorage (Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport)
Aniak (Aniak Airport)
Barrow
Bethel
Dillingham
Fairbanks
King Salmon
Kotzebue
McGrath
Nome
Prudhoe Bay/Deadhorse
Red Dog
St. Mary's
Unalakleet
I have decided to simulate this airline simply because of how challenging and fun the flights can be. There are airports on our schedule whose whether conditions regularly can be 30-40 knot winds, cloud cover at 500 feet, visibility 1/4 of a mile. All the while, flying in an almost vintage 737-200 with no LNAV or VNAV, navigating airways, SIDs, and STARs VOR radial to radial.
Virtual Northern Air Cargo is a recent start-up. We are looking for dedicated pilots that would like to participate in a staff position. Staff positions are not necessarily time consuming. If you are interested and have a little bit of a free time, check us out.
If you are an experienced pilot looking for a new challenge in Alaska flying what is almost bush routes in a 737, check us out.
