The wonderful people at Sheldon Air Service helped me plan and coordinate my glacier wedding. Their service and commitment is unparalleled. The flight was the most beautiful one I've ever taken and I've been in many different places of the world. The pristine wilderness around the Glacier and the Don Sheldon Amphitheater was a stillness and beauty unlike I've ever... More

We went on a fabulous fightseeing tour with Sheldon Air Service. Our pilot Jacques took us to Ruth Glacier where we landed and played in the snow. He then flew us through the Alaska Range where we saw Mt. Mckinley up close. He was really knowledgeable about the area and gave a constant narration of what we were seeing. We... More

We took the Grand Tour around McKinley and landed on the Eldridge Glacier. The tour was worth every cent. Scenery so beautiful, it's hard to describe...we were blessed with clear, blue skies, so we could see for miles and miles! Believe the positive reviews about the friendly, local family owned and run business. Our pilot was A+! Give Sheldon Air... More

I was a solo climber this May. I had to wait in Talkeetna a day or two, but when the weather cleared, Dave flew me out immediately by myself. He was having as much fun as I was: "You did that just to impress me, didn't you." "Yes". On my way back out, I had to wait a day or... More

My boyfriend and I recently took a trip to Talkeetna and went flightseeing with Sheldon Air service and I have to say please trust me and use their service. They are family owned and operated and the kindest people we met in Alaska. Holly, Don Sheldon's daughter, was extremely nice and personable and I am so glad i got to... More

Spectacular views! David and Holly, as well as the rest of the crew, were down right NICE!. This is real Alaskan hospitality by real people who... More

The first part of our ten day trip to Alaska was a flightseeing trip to Mt. McKinley through Sheldon Air. We parked our RV right outside of the hanger and the next day after some cloudy weather we had a great flight. The pilot was very good with a running commentary of the sights and answers to all of our... More

As most know, there's no guarantee for flight seeing with weather conditions. Having only a 2 day window for this portion of our Alaska visit we were not lucky. In spite of the overcast day we kept our reservation & drove up to Talkeetna for our air tour. We started the tour, but after about 10 minutes David advised us... More

Holly is the daughter of legendary bush pilot Don Sheldon, and she and her husband David -- one of the most experienced pilots flying in the Mt. McKinley range -- own and operate Sheldon Air Service. David flew me on a grand circumnavigation of Mt. McKinley, including two glacier landings: it was simply one of the most enjoyable experiences of... More
