Description
This is the only aircraft at Ravn Alaska painted in the colors of the US flag. It apparently received this color from the previous owner of Stars & Stripes AIR TOURS. A Las Vegas-based tour company with flights to the Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam, and the Las Vegas Strip. (Couldn't find their site probably already closed.)
Stars & Stripes AIR TOURS had at least one more Grand Caravan in the same livery with tail number N208WF, a photo of which I found. If there is a request, I can make this version too.
Corvus Airlines d.b.a. Ravn Alaska is a regional airline that specializes in serving the small communities in the US state of Alaska. The airline is headquartered in Anchorage, which is also home to the primary hub used by Ravn, Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport...
...On April 5, 2020, in the midst of travel disruptions due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Ravn shut down its entire operation, laid off all staff, and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy...
...At the bankruptcy auction in July 2020, the Ravn Connect part 135 airlines was sold in pieces to other airlines of Alaska.
Wikipedia.Previously, Ravn Alaska was called Era Alaska, if you watched the documentary series Flying Wild Alaska, then this airline is familiar to you. If you haven't, I highly recommend it - you will see many flights on Grand Caravans. But at present, Ravn does not have Grand Caravans in its fleet, as it was forced to sell the entire fleet of small aircraft due to bankruptcy in July 2020.

Absolutely love this livery, but unfortunately the interior turns pink when viewed from a distance.
