Scheduling a Flight

As a professor or a department head if you decide that it is advantageous for you to utilize ISU Flight Service, a flight plan is set up according to your schedule. For example, if you and your delegation wish to arrive in Chicago at 9A.M., your departure from the Ames airport would be 7:45A.M. using our Beechcraft King Air 200. Check-in time at the ISU Flight Service hanger would be 7:40A.M. There are seven suitable airports in the Chicago area. If you provide the street address of your destination, we will file our instrument flight plan to the nearest airport. Departure time from Chicago will depend on how long it takes to conduct your business. The Flight Service operation is very adaptable to your schedule.
