Pilots who live in northwest Washington state know the airplanes that fly for Kenmore Air on sight—with their distinctive liveries, and the fact that a lot of them use the copious waterways and lakes in the region for takeoff and landing. Right now under the current restrictions, the company operates domestic flights only, with that hopefully opening up on June 15.

Key Takeaways:
- Kenmore Air, well-known for its domestic seaplane operations, also specializes in extensively restoring DeHavilland DHC-2 Beaver aircraft for clients.
- They primarily seek ex-military Beavers built to higher standards and with low total-time airframes for their restoration projects.
- Kenmore Air is renowned in the industry for its high-quality rebuilds, having completed over 150 Beavers, which are often referred to as "Kenmore Beavers."
- Unlike other aircraft, damage history doesn't affect a Beaver's value; instead, the reputation and expertise of the restoration shop, like Kenmore's, is the key factor.
