Abstract
In British Columbia there is a business opportunity to move airfreight between Vancouver and the Pacific Northwest. At present airfreight is not viewed as a prior it:^ by the airlines serving the area. There is sufficient demand for reliable airfreight delivery to the Pacific Northwest of British Columbia to support a viable business opportunity. This project presents an estimate for the dernand of airfreight in the Pacific Northwest, a strategic evaluation of the local air freight industry, a determination of the status quo with regard to existing facilities, and a description of a sample of aircraft suitable for the transport of freight. The project concludes with a financial analysis of an airfreight business opportunity, and offers recommendations for increasing the sustainability of an airfreight operation.
