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.
Kenmore Air Seeks Candidate DHC-2 For Project
Key Takeaways:
- Kenmore Air, known for its seaplane operations in northwest Washington, also leverages its expertise to perform extensive restorations of DeHavilland DHC-2 Beaver aircraft.
- They often seek out ex-military Beavers built to higher standards, and due to their over 150 rebuilds, damage history does not significantly affect a plane's value or their ability to restore it.
- While their shop currently has a lead time of 12-18 months for restoration projects, Kenmore Air is actively looking for more candidate DHC-2 Beavers for future work.
