Topic: Alaskan Bush



  
 Alaska - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Alaskan Bush is the remote, less crowded part of the state, encompassing 380 native villages and small towns such as Nome, Bethel, Kotzebue and, most famously, Barrow, the northernmost point on the North American continent.
Notable is Alaska's relatively large Eastern Orthodox Christian population, a result of early Russian colonization and missionary work among indigenous Alaskans.
The fund invests a portion of the state's mineral revenue, including revenue from the Trans-Alaskan Pipeline System, "to benefit all generations of Alaskans." In March 2005, the fund's value was over $30 billion.

 "Runway Inflation" by Stephanie Mencimer
How flying wedding chapels and Alaskan bush pilots landed a share of the airline bailout.
Warbelow's is a charter service that, among other things, delivers mail to remote Alaskan villages and takes hunters and fishermen on guided trips into the Alaskan bush so they can shoot grizzlies and caribou.
(The troubled Alaskan Airlines, incidentally, also has picked up a cool $71.6 million so far.) Dollar-wise, the Alaskan small firms' share of the bailout fund is a drop in the bucket, but just in sheer numbers, those firms account for a disproportionate 13 percent of all the companies paid by the Department of Transportation.

 FR Doc 03-25654
Alaska Bush communities, as defined for purposes of the policy, are rural Alaskan communities of less than 1,000 residents that are isolated from larger cities by rugged terrain and harsh weather conditions.
It also noted that the Alaska Bush Policy was formulated prior to the advent of MTS competition, and is based on a regulatory policy designed to prevent non-dominant carriers from investing in facilities at their own expense to compete with a carrier with an established facilities monopoly.
The Alaska Bush Policy was based on the principle that duplicative proposals for facilities in the Alaska Bush communities are mutually exclusive because one facility could provide all the services provided by either party, and there was no public interest benefit in the construction of duplicate MTS facilities.

 Northern Flights: Alaska offers options to professional pilots
In fact, she points out, some Alaskan bush pilots owned enough total time to be with major airlines outside the state.
She was surprised to hear how much total time many bush pilots had and still were flying with small companies in Alaska and mentions that pilots in Washington State with equivalent flight time would almost certainly be flying with a Part 135 operation or regional airline.
For instance, PenAir, which also operates many smaller bush planes, stipulates minimum total time for first officer applicants at its Anchorage base is 700 hours, but minimum requirements for bush pilot applicants include 1,500 total hours, preferably with ATP, and 500 of those hours should be Alaska time.

 AVSIM Special Feature: Bush Flying in FS2002
The Alaskan Bush Charters' general forum: look here.
Bush flying is a form of flying that was born out of need to move supplies for the early settlers up in the northwestern areas of Canada and of course Alaska, but there also were the early flyers that explored and/or resupplied the remote areas of Africa, South America, Antarctica, and Australia as well.
Bush flying got its earliest start in 1920 in Canada, but it wasn't until the early part of the 1930s that specialized aircraft were being designed for operations on land, water, or snow—and ironically many of the aircraft types based on those early designs are still flying.

The most common bush planes are the Cessna 182, Cessna 206, Piper Super Cub, Douglas DC-3, DeHavilland DHC-3 Otter, and De Havilland Beaver, although countless other aircraft types serve in these hostile regions.

Norton said she supported Bush's plan to open the Alaskan refuge to oil exploration, but would work with landowners, local authorities and state governments to oversee the country's federal lands and national parks.
Bush is under pressure from corporate and other interests to roll back late-term Clinton administration environmental decrees, and Bush pledged in the campaign to seek to open part of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil exploration, a pledge that angered many environmental groups.
Bush also nominated Gale Norton, Colorado's former attorney general, as secretary of the interior; Rod Paige, now superintendent of schools in Houston, Texas, as secretary of education; and Anthony Principi as secretary of veterans affairs.
