QuikAir is now examining options that include either leasing or buying four of the copters.
QuikAir's edge, he says, is being able to fly directly into downtown Edmonton, bypassing a 30- to 40-minute commute to or from the International.

 135-A-2004 -- Domestic service - Quikair Inc. cob as Quikair
This advice was provided on the fact that although Quikair is chartering the aircraft of holders of domestic service, small aircraft licences, all reservations, payments, passenger boarding procedures, aircraft scheduling and marketing functions carried out by Quikair were consistent with a publicly available air service.
The Agency also notes that by Order No. 2004-A-104 which took effect March 12, 2004, Quikair was granted an exemption from the application of paragraph 57(a) of the CTA, to allow Quikair to operate a domestic service, small aircraft, without holding a licence, in respect of that service, until March 19, 2004 at 11:59 p.m.
In light of the foregoing, it appears to the Agency that Quikair's failure to obtain a licence before operating the service was not a wilful attempt to avoid compliance with legislative and regulatory requirements.
