From our Glacier and Wildlife tour with photo stop at Beluga Lake. This flight will take you over the rugged Alaskan wilderness through alpine valleys and over massive glaciers. You’ll have the opportunity to scout wildlife in their natural habitat. We offer this tour year round, just without the lakeside stop on the winter.

📸: Stephen Spence - our pilots also double as talented photographers!

Redoubt Bay Lodge is located 70 miles southwest of Anchorage near the beautiful entrance of Lake Clark National Park and Preserve. Redoubt Bay is home to one of the most concentrated and viewable bear populations in the state of Alaska. Viewing is from a covered pontoon boat while an experienced naturalist guides you through the chain of Big River Lakes.

Back when 99J had its round nose and gold paint. Did you know we have been operating for over 60 years? Rust’s Flying Service was started in 1963!

Soar above the blue face of glaciers and view some of Alaska’s most rugged mountain peaks on this 3-hour Prince William Sound seaplane tour from Anchorage. This is one of our pilots’ favorite trips because the scenery is so varied and the changing weather conditions make every trip unique. Prince William Sound is a magnificent region with 15,000 square miles of fjords and inlets, and scores of tidewater glaciers. This tour includes a photo stop landing in one of the area’s pristine coves.

Our favorite sound! There’s nothing like the low rumble of a radial engine on a De Havilland Beaver.

We had incredible weather for our bear viewing tour at Chinitna Bay on Thursday. The bears were active and grazing on sedge, and we spotted 13 out in the fields!

My how things have changed around our home base of Lake Hood since the 80s. Do you remember those days of red and gold paint when our office matched our planes?
