Owner-Dave Tunge

Dakota Aerials is owned and operated by Dave Tunge. He started his flying career in the 1960's. He is a Commercial Pilot; holds Single, Multi-Engine, and Instrument Flight Instructor Ratings and has logged over 20,000 hours of flight experience. 

Aerial photography has been a passion with him for nearly as long as he has been flying. Dave is a native of South Dakota, growing up in Sioux Falls and eventually residing in the hills overlooking Lewis & Clark Lake near Yankton...the "Mother City of the Dakotas".


Aircraft Information

The aircraft utilized by Dakota Aerials is a modified Piper Super Cub. The Super Cub can be safely flown at very low airspeeds and has a clamshell like door that effectively opens up the entire side of the aircraft for unobstructed camera views. Short of a helicopter, the Super Cub offers, by far, the best aerial image platform that is available. 

This platform assures clients of stunning images while still maintaining a modest fee structure
