YIKES !!! Lake Chelan Seaplane Base is closing. The current historical location no longer seems to be a choice and we need to help find a new location, perhaps an even better one. WSPA will be monitoring and advocating for the right answer. 

In addition to being a valuable commercial operation and source of lake transportation, Chelan SPB is also a place GA pilots can put down in times of need while crossing the mountains. It is an important part of the only northern US seaplane cross country trail we have left.
