45 North Flight

Annual Inspection - Just took delivery of my Skylane C-182 after 45North Aviation finished the Annual Inspection and required work. Brendon Hess (Director of Maintenance) managed the work with professionalism and excellence providing regular communication, pictures, clear explanation of required work AND completed the work on time. My wife and I could not be happier. In General Aviation, these inspections are always stressful, but the team at 45 North Aviation exceeded our expectations. They understood our goals and worked with us to ensure the plane was ready on time. If you're looking for a shop that is professional, 45 North Aviation is fabulous.

Outstanding!!! We have flown twice with 45 North…one King Air and one helicopter, both experiences surpassed our expectations!! Nathan (pilot) and Jessika (operations) are professional, conscientious, amicable and so kind. They take wonderful care of my elderly parents as well. I know my family is safe in their care.

45 North Aviation provided an exceptionally skilled helicopter pilot. The skydivers unanimously agreed 45 North's Bell 407GXP is the most luxurious and exciting jump platform we ever exited. Tour passengers were treated to unforgettable panoramas of the Grand Traverse region. Must do it again soon.

45 North Aviation consistently impresses me with their exceptional aircraft maintenance services. Their team goes above and beyond to ensure my aircraft is always in top condition for every flight. From routine inspections to intricate repairs, their professionalism and expertise shine through. I wholeheartedly recommend 45 North Aviation for anyone seeking reliable and trustworthy aircraft maintenance.

Had a 6 minute helicopter tour of the bay area. We were met in the parking lot with enthusiasm and clear directions. Everyone wore masks and we were introduced to our pilot Ryder right away. They walked us through the hanger and to the helicopter! He helped us take pictures and helped us with doors and seatbelts. We put in our head phones and we were off! I couldn't stop smiling. ☺️ It was so fast and so fun if love to go again! After, we spoke to Gracie in the office all about the planes and becoming a pilot and their business. Totally recommend. Everything was super clean and professionally run. Would definitely do again! 🚁🍂🌳
