Summary
Island Airways planned a September 18, 2010 pilot safety seminar at Welke Airport, with MDOT and FAA participation and sessions on over-water, cold-weather, and short-field operations. The organizer later cancelled it because storms and reduced visibility prevented the planned speaker from reaching the island.
