When I went on my trip in November I flew from smaller airports.
Ground transportation was all pre-arranged before travel.
I hope they are able to succeed. I already contacted them about using
them for a trip. They are not using "small prop'd" planes, they use
turbo prop (jet) engine. Did you see the article the Royal Flying
Doctor Service in Australia uses the same Pilatus PC-12 aircraft?

Great ideas..... are just that. Great ideas. I can't begin to see
how anyone can stay in business using small prop'd planes, with 2-3
person crews, to fly that much weight from point A to B and stay in
business. Granted, cutting corners may save some time and money,
but at who's expense. These planes will be using private hangers at
both large and small airports, then what does one do when they
arrive. Ground transport may not be available in smaller populated
areas and the money saved goes out the window... with the parachute.

It's about time. I'd be willing to try this. I've always thought it
was against ADA wishes for us to have to get out of our chairs to
fly. If the buses tried to do that to us, they'd get sued. I
wonder what the prices would be like. In the picture, did they just
pick the whole chair up? I would think they would need a ramp...
