Summary

The April 2010 Beacon described a March 2010 approach to Fresh Air Aviation about using its Partenavia aircraft in The Frontier Boys, a Charlevoix-filmed production. The feature says the request expanded from still photographs to flying footage filmed inside and outside the aircraft.

Evidence limits

This is a contemporaneous feature about planned or reported production use; it does not establish the final film edit, release, or every filming location.

  1. A Fresh Air Aviation participant said the company had been asked to participate in the Charlevoix-filmed The Frontier Boys and linked a Charlevoix Courier report about the March 11 Northern Michigan premiere. This corroborates the local aviation connection but does not establish the final film edit or the extent of aircraft use.
