What's the skinny on carrying a gun when flying in Alaska?



Regs or recommendation?


There have been changes in both Alaska's and Canada's regs since I
went up. 5 yrs. ago, Canada had no problem with pilots taking a long
gun (IIRC 36+ ") on their way to Alaska. I read a few years ago that
they would be requiring either a multi-day "gun safety" class or you
can waive that by paying a fee for each firearm. I can't say for sure
whether or not that policy became a reality. Anyone made the trip
recently?

Alaska regs no longer require you to carry a firearm, but they highly
recommend it (as do I). I took a 12-gauge with slugs. The regs still
do require you to carry a detailed list of survival gear.
