Open
Posted by Roger Bates on 05/16/2009
We are officially open for business, have some fun and lets see those Kesuk birds in the air!! Here is the release:
The underlying theme of every conversation these days is the economy. The economy has affected all of us in this nation and also the globalized economy. However the undertone of the Kesuk Virtual, opening ceremony at Fairbanks International was that of promise, and industrial success.
As citizens of the tight but far reaching community in Alaska, we know that travel and basic transportation of supplies is sometimes a challege. Kesuk Virtual has brought new light and hope into both of these areas with their energy and fresh ideas. Kesuk will be connecting the pipe line, and remote cities with our major cities of Alaska, in several different airplane types, the L100 Hercules, ATR-72, Beech 1900, and the most exciting of them all the Beriev 103. The B103 will allow Kesuk, to service towns, remote areas along the line, and areas only serviceable by water landings.
As a community, we have had little to look forward to, but Kesuk Virtual has given us so much to be excited about, and intends on employing hundreds of locals, to help give a real stimulus to the community of Alaska. As founder and CEO Roger Bates says, Kesuk services Alaska as the crow flies, or in some instances as the duck flies.
