Thanks to Kris Lethin – our web cam technical support guy/computer guru – our Webcam for the Seldovia Airport is back on line!  The problem was a heavy snow load that fell off the roof and severed the line and pulled apart connections – so Kris had to troubleshoot , splice and replace the line!  Thanks again Kris, I really appreciate you!  So do all the folks/pilots who check out the condition of the Seldovia airport before flying over!  Thanks too, to George – who keeps our airport in great condition.  We have an awesome reputation for a very well maintained and safe airstrip!   Run way is clear – come on over to Seldovia!!

by Jenny Chissus – thanks Darlene for the head’s up on this!

The comment period is over – but there is still time to voice your comments about the proposed schedule for the AMHS via teleconference.  As noted below, the teleconference will be on this upcoming Tuesday, March 27th, at 1:30pm for the southwest and southcentral runs.  As it is proposed, looks like Seldovia will be serviced only once a week from November through April.  Check out the proposed schedule here.

Thanks to the Gerry Willard Generation Plant!
