Miccar Aerial

What Miccar Aerial does

Miccar Aerial Ltd. is a Canadian agricultural aviation company founded in 1996 and headquartered in Yorkton, Saskatchewan. The company operates a fleet of two Air Tractor 502B turboprop aircraft equipped with rotary atomizers, AgNav GPS guidance systems, and AgNav Flow Control, providing precision aerial application of crop protection products and fertilizers primarily across agricultural land in southeast central Saskatchewan. It also offers yard spraying services to property owners and Fixed-Base Operator (FBO) services to other aircraft operators, including Jet-A fuel sales, oil (Eastman 2380), and use of a 10,000 sq/ft hangar with a 70-foot wide by 18-foot high door.

The company serves four primary customer segments: agricultural operations (farmers requiring crop spraying), property owners (residential or acreage owners requesting yard spraying), forestry operations, ranch operations, and aircraft operators requiring FBO services. Pricing is transactional and acreage-based: $650 per yard up to 15 acres, $1,000 per yard plus product cost for larger jobs, with aerial agricultural application priced on a quote basis. The company uses Flight Plan Online for field data and mission planning, and holds a commercial license to operate anywhere in Canada. Miccar is associated with two related brands — Good Spirit Air Service and Flin Flon Aircraft Maintenance — suggesting an affiliated aviation services ecosystem.

Revenue mechanics combine per-acre application fees with fuel and hangar rentals; the per-job $650-$1,000 yard spraying pricing and a seasonal aerial application schedule imply revenue is concentrated in the Canadian growing season. Equipment is mid-to-high specification for the segment (Air Tractor 502B is a heavy-haul agricultural turboprop), and the company is commercially registered for cross-Canada operations, providing geographic optionality that is not yet visibly exercised beyond Saskatchewan.
