Safety

Since its beginning in 1982 Regal Air has maintained an unsurpassed safety record, and strives every day to keep it that way. Pilot and Passenger safety are always the first concern, and we will always do what is in the best interest of those on board our aircraft. Diligent maintenance, training, weight and balance, and weather observation are just a few of the many things Regal Air’s staff does on a daily basis to ensure that your flight is a safe one. All aircraft are equipped with safety gear including life vests, first aid kits, ELTs and fire extinguishers.

Spidertracks

Regal Air is proud to announce that all of our aircraft are equipped with a flight-tracking device called Spidertracks. Spidertracks is a form of AFF (Automated Flight Following) that gives our dispatch office real time flight information on such as location, altitude, and speed of all of our aircraft in the skies all the time. We are proud to be the only flight operator on Lake Hood utilizing such technology.
