Hi, yes it is!
Can someone give me contact info to contact the person in charge of the Island Air Explorers?
I’m from Aloha Council.
Aloha,
Audy
Hi Audy,
The director of the program will contact you shortly via email. Thank you for your interest.
Aloha, I’m interested in supporting Island Air Explores post #2437 by purchasing the Dash-8 at H/R. At this time I care to share some of my background with you. I work with the Veteran’s Affairs Tripler Hospital in the Travel Section. I’m currently pursuing my private pilot rating and I’ve volunteered with the Pacific Aviation Museum Ford Island during the Grand opening 2006. Currently on the first Saturday each month I volunteer with Explorers post #2013 Dillingham Airfield. How would I be able to support or volunteer with post #2437? If possible I would be interested in seating in on some of the classes with your 2011 class. I have much to learn as well as the youth. Look forward to your reply.
Hi, thank you for your interest! Your message has been forwarded to the Program Director and she responded via email.
i just came upon this page and was wondering if the Dash 8 models are still in stock, and if so, how do we purchase. Thanks
Hi Darren,
Thanks for your interest. Yes, they are available from the Island Air Store: http://www.islandairstore.com
Thanks for the abovr link, but unfortunately the plastic model is
sold out. Do you expect to get more?
Hi Darren,
We do not anticipate having the plastic models available anytime soon. We will let you know if anything changes. Thanks for your interest!
Aloha, while i live in NY i return “home” to my extended family on maui annually. Please tell me how i can buy the island air dash. Can i pay by credit card and have it shipped ? If so, how much?
Mahalo.
Good Morning.
I’m interested in the Explorers program and would like to know the name of the program director in charge of the Island Air Explorers to better acknowledge/provide the letter of recommendation.
Thank you,
Ian Ramos
Hi Rich,

Hi Ian,
I will forward your email to her and have her contact you directly.
Thanks!
Is there any plans to restock the snap together Dash 8? I would like to get one and support this group but $200 is out of my price range.
Ben
Mahalo for your willingness to support the program! Let me talk it over with the director and see what we can do.
Sounds good, thanks a ton! I fly for a living and absolutely love it, would be great to help others realize their dream too!
Any update on the possibility of restocking the plastic Dash 8? Would love to get one.
They will be back with a new design! A limited quantity will be available in approximately 4 months. The manufacturer is a little backed up at the moment. We will do the official announcement on the blog and let you know how you can reserve one before they are ready. Thanks for your inquiry!
I received your email about this program. Are there any future plans to make it available to outer island youth? It would be great if it was available on the other islands for their Scouts to participate. Please let me know. Mahalo
Hi Minette,
Thank you for your inquiry. Someone will get back to you via email.
I was finishing up my application and was wondering if there is a letter of recommendation form to give to my teacher?
Great John, looking forward to seeing it! Someone will contact you via email to answer your question.
