Great Lakes Airlines - Inactive Fleet - Winter 2019

The inactive Great Lakes Airlines fleet of Beech 1900D's and EMB-120's parked in storage at Cheyenne Regional Airport (KCYS). The carrier operated two types of turboprop aircraft, the Beechcraft 1900D and the Embraer EMB-120 Brasilia. Great Lakes Airlines was once the world's largest operator of the Beechcraft 1900.

As with many commuter airlines, new government regulations and pilot requirements created a hardship for them and on March 26, 2018, Great Lakes Airlines announced that operations would be suspended.
