Merlin Air anticipates creating 12 to 18 jobs in the next 2 years; and will generate $2 to $5 million annually in economic benefits to the Sea-to-Sky region. Merlin Air has a full-service facility – heated hanger, offices, reception, passenger areas, aviation fuel and personnel and is gearing up to be in start-up operation in June and full service operations by fall of 2010, flying Navaho and Chieftain twin engine aircraft with capacities of 6 to 8 passengers.
