Flying with Black Moose Outposts

Since the First World War, bush flying has been a long tradition in Canada, serving remote northern communities, patrolling forest fires, and pioneering aviation under extreme conditions. We at Black Moose Outposts are proud to carry on this tradition with our world class pilots and fleet of classic airplanes that can land on solid ground, water or snow. We are licensed by Transport Canada and hold a valid 703 Air Operator Certificate. Based out of Howey Bay in Red Lake, Ontario, we are proud to fly our guests and their supplies, as well as contractors, trappers, fishermen, hunters, adventurers, and canoers into remote Northwestern Ontario, including Woodland Caribou Park, and elsewhere in Canada. We are available for charter, with wait times if required. Please note that our planes easily take external loads, including boats, canoes and lumber.
