Does anyone know what First Air's financials look like since that incident? Did a quick google search but didn't find much, granted I didn't look too hard.

When I was in Inuvik last year I came back just before Christmas, and that's a very busy time for airlines obviously, but especially up there when it's the only way to travel. (highways closed)

40 minutes before my flight (Canadian North) there was a First Air flight leaving. Exact same plane, exact same flight path, just 40 minutes earlier. 737-200C, flying from YEV to YVQ, YZF then YEG.

Our flight was full (115 people iirc) First Air flight had about 20-30 people on it. Curious if people just didn't want to fly FA, or maybe it was just mostly taking cargo that day?
