Alpine Air is a leading Part 135 air cargo operator with a long and distinguished history providing its customers with safe and reliable air cargo transportation services primarily throughout the Western United States. Today, Alpine owns and operates a growing fleet of over 70 aircraft and developed a proprietary Supplemental Type Certificate (“STC”) to convert the Beechcraft 1900D aircraft from passenger configuration to cargo configuration, making it the largest single pilot cargo aircraft in the world. This innovative STC offers Alpine a unique competitive advantage which should enable the Company to capture greater share in its market.
