Featured State: Alaska : a brisk air cargo industry...

Alaska Airlines, Northern Air Cargo and Era Aviation added aircraft to expand and make their services more economical. Peninsula Airways moved into a new hangar and Northwest Airlines Cargo took a lease on the old Reeve Hangar to start a maintenance facility at Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport.

Era Aviation successfully emerged from bankruptcy and took delivery of two Beechcraft 1900 19-passenger turbo-prop aircraft to replace its 45-year-old DeHavilland Twin Otter fleet.

In October the U.S. Postal Service announced a plan to further change the way it gets mail to Bush Alaska by moving rural hub airports to 14 smaller villages in an effort to save money in its bypass mail system. This came after a change to truck mail up the Dalton Highway to Prudhoe Bay, instead of flying it from Fairbanks.

An article on the Alaskan Air Freight Industry was discovered on the Alaska Journal
