Shortest Flight

[Northern Lights]

GRR-atw in a BA46 - 5 minutes

Wow! I didn't realize that the BA46 could do 30+ miles per minute!!
GRR-ATW = 154NM

Used to do MKCB to MKCL in the DC-3. Cayman Brac to Little Cayman, about 5 miles, but almost 10 minutes in the ole goonie bird if you took off and landed in opposite directions. Fun flight from one island to another at 500 feet high.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that he meant GRB-ATW...that could feasibly be done in 5 minutes.

West Isle

I think West Isle still exists. There are other carriers that fly inter-island in the San Juans, though. San Juan Airlines is one. Harbor Air went out of business.

San Juan Airlines bought out West Isle and are doing very well. However, Their "world's shortest scheduled route" is no longer scheduled...just a charter. It was about a quarter mile hop from one Island to another...Center to Decatur (I believe).
