Private charter to & from Grand Forks

Grand Forks is home to the University of North Dakota, whose aerospace school is one of the largest collegiate flight training programs in the world, and the city has built an economy around aviation, unmanned aircraft and research. Grand Forks Air Force Base, which flies large surveillance drones, is just west of town, and a growing cluster of companies works on drone technology nearby. Agriculture, healthcare and manufacturing round out the economy of a city that rebuilt after the devastating Red River flood of 1997.

Grand Forks International Airport is busy with UND training flights, but airline service is limited, and Fargo is more than an hour south. Flying private lets researchers, defense contractors and agribusiness executives travel directly to meetings across the region. Visitors come for UND Fighting Hawks hockey at the Ralph Engelstad Arena, the Greater Grand Forks Greenway along the river and the North Dakota Museum of Art, with East Grand Forks, Minnesota, just across the Red River.
