This ls hap- where the charter com- panies aren't experiencing much growth,’ In the West, Business Flights had a 66-per-cent increase in its fleet in less than a year. It invested $7.5 million in six additional airplanes to bring its total fleet to 16. Lett also is looking for- ward to the of a $6.6 million Executive Flight Centre in the city airport's east hangars. “There fust isn’t anything sauna, ‘exercise quite like the Executive Flight Centre anywhere in Canada. With a Jacuzzi, room, lounge, restaurant and club environment for visiting pi- lots as part of doing business at tha terminal, we are doing something completely dif- ferent.” Lett sald he credits his faving Peter. Bawden for -the vision to get the Job done, former Conservative member of Parliament for Calgary South and president of Bawden Drilling Services Lid, salvaged Chinook Air Services and Mackenzie Air, two charter companies, in the middle 70s to start Business Flights. ‘‘Thé company has been growing ever since," Lett said, “However, there isn't any doubt that the charter business only started doing a booming business in 1977. “Most of our business, at “ast 80 per cent, is with compuntes doing business in the ai] patch." Letteald the increase in oil and gas activity in Alberta In the last two years has meant good times for other charter companies too, Including Southern Frontier Ali Transport Ltd., Meridian Aviation Ltd, Alberta Northern Airlines Ltd, and Springbank Aviation Ltd. With the competition, the charter flight ir growing more sophisticated, and Business Filghts ia where selling speed and quality. “With the average price for chartering a Lear Jet to Toronto and back now $8,509, ; we have things down to a science,” Lett asid, “An plane cab takin tt te ne to start y the time he sits down. The buoyant times in Alberta are not enough to promise security, however, "Our business flights across Canada depend on having good conditions every- pening in the Eastern cities wale © Prices Effective till Saturday, September e hs pie Fees oe Sig MES lf : : eo 5 ne J . : SS i ¢ i 2 i L ‘s ms J - 3 * « PK.
