“We are installing electric aircraft charging stations and we are in the process of doing that now. This should be completed by the end of the summer of this year. “It’s very exciting to be one of the first airports in the region preparing for the future of electric aircraft. We have the vision for that,” Johnson relays. Johnson points to added safety for pilots who may be at risk flying in inclement weather to the islands as well as the potential ease of delivering cargo to the area. “We are trying to encourage unmanned aircraft that could be an option.” “Now they can just set it to an unmanned drone and have packages delivered which is the way of the future. We are excited to be at the forefront of that, “ Johnson enthuses. 52 AVIATION VIEW MAGAZINE VOLUME 05, ISSUE 02
