Wasaya Airways L.P. is one of the many remote operators utilizing the Hawker Siddeley 748 for freight and fuel deliveries. Wasaya Airways depends on the HS-748 for cargo and fuel deliveries to approximately 25 First Nation communities in Northwestern Ontario and Northern Manitoba. The cargo capacity of the HS-748 is approximately 12,000 pounds.

Wasaya Airways operates four HS-748's from our Pickle Lake and Red Lake bases. Our HS-748 Super Tanker is based in Pickle Lake and is solely dedicated to fuel hauls for commercial and private customers. Depending on the weekly customer and operational requirements, this determines which HS-748 is situated at each base.

Of the three remaining freighter HS-748's, two are configured with a large freight door (LFD). This expanded cargo entry access increases loading efficiency as the freight can usually be shipped palletized. The LFD HS-748's are ideal for transporting large items; construction material and neat palletized freight (please note that weight restrictions may apply).

The cruise speed of the HS-748 is 225 knots. The wingspan is 102 feet, with an overall aircraft length of 68 feet. The cabin length is 46 feet, 6 inches, with a height of 6 feet, 3 inches. Please note that our HS-748 operates in Canada only.
