Remote Communities

Approximately 292 remote communities in Canada are accessible year-round only by small airplanes. Their supply chains for heavier and non-perishable goods are limited to sea lifts and trucks over seasonal ice roads. Cargo airships of 30 MT lift could transport all the bulky, heavy and over-dimensional goods that are needed in these communities.

Consistent service from BASI airships would help to ensure food security, lower delivered-costs, create jobs, and improve the lives of people in remote communities.

Access to consistent, The Buoyant Aircraft Transportation System would have the following benefits:

• Health (better food nutrition, better healthcare facility possibilities)
• Local job creation (Airdock, handling crews, other staff)
• Trades (opportunities of obtain sufficient hours for Red Seals)
• Housing (increase the quality and quantity of Northern housing)
• Infrastructure (opening resource developments and mines)
• Heavy Machinery (rapid repairs and delivery of emergency vehicles)
• Environment (zero-carbon emissions and minimal surface footprint)
• Business development opportunities (myriad of supply chains)

The diagram below shows an example supply chain for major urban food suppliers moving both FTL and LTL shipments through the BASI system.
