Question Flightseeing Iles de la Madeleine?

Does anyone offer flightseeing or short hops to Entry Island from Iles de la Madeleine (YGR)?

Icarus Flight Services seems to have lost their license.

I went to YGR and asked at the Pascan counter (simply because it was staffed at the time). They didn't know about any local for hire service, but referred me to a local man who used to offer such services. I was told he is the local guy-in-the-know. I called him up, talked to his spouse, and was told that they have sold their plane and nobody else picked up the service.

So it seems that no flightseeing or easily available taxi service for tourism purposes exists on Iles de la Madeleine.

I also went to Entry Island (by ferry) and found an airfield with two paved runways plus a wooden helipad on the other end of the island. At the airfield, I did not see any planes nor hangars. So I understand that no aircraft are stationed on Entry Island.
