Security Aviation

Security Aviation, an Anchorage based Part 135 on-demand charter operator, announced the addition of a second Bombardier Learjet 45 to its existing fleet, the only such aircraft available for charter in Alaska. 

The new Learjet is Wide Area Augmentation Systems  capable, meaning it uses an extremely accurate navigation system developed for civil aviation. It is also Advanced Airborne Censor-equipped, and equipped with BR modification and gross weight increase kit to allow for better performance, fuel efficiency, and range. The Learjet offers amenities like executive leather seating, a refreshment station, and an enclosed lavatory. 

The jet’s primary use will be for expedited passenger and light cargo transportation throughout Alaska, Canada, and the Lower 48, as well as emergency response services. The Learjet is available for charter 24/7 and seats up to eight passengers. The aircraft cruises at 535 mph with a range in excess of 2,000 statute miles.

Security Aviation has more than thirty-five years of operating experience in Alaska, and is currently the only on-demand charter operator in the state to offer mid-size charter jet service.

Mapping Whittier’s Future
September 2026

What happens when a city with fewer than 300 residents becomes a major freight and tourism hub, despite being accessible only by boat, plane, or a one-lane highway/railroad tunnel managed on a strict schedule?

If you’re in the City of Whittier, you get busy. The city has two separate transportation planning efforts underway, including a safety action plan under the federal Safe Streets and Roads for All initiative, which focuses on improving safety for pedestrians, cyclists, motorists, and emergency responders. The second is Whittier Moves, the city’s transportation master plan, which serves as the long-term roadmap for growth.
