The aircraft will be used in a variety of roles, including to meet the Falkland Islands’ increasing popularity as a holiday destination. The new BN2B-26 Islander aircraft has gone to the Falkland Islands Government Aviation Service (FIGAS). The Islander’s ability to operate with ease as a high-frequency, short-sector, passenger and freight aircraft has made it ideal for hopping around the dramatic landscape. The second Islander is scheduled for delivery in 2021.
