  • Over the North Atlantic, Arnie, Justin and Cory press on to Turkey, even though they have only half of the spare parts in their plane. But there are some serious volcanoes and busy Mediterranean air traffic ahead.

    I can't imagine a mining operation complaining about a damaged wing tip, when I was a flight engineer on DC-6's hauling fuel into mines inside Alaska, those guys were just happy to have the service, if you look real close at 42:46 the propeller on the number #3 engine on the DC-4 which is landing is feathered, one of the benefits of a four engine aircraft.

    Haha! This series is so addictive... hype or not, everything is on the line when one of these birds gets a dent. We are witness to the end of an era... the sun is setting on these flying relics. One day these young pilots will have a great story to tell their grandchildren, a story that very few old geezers will have to tell. We are fortunate that cameras were there to record the last of the working tall ships, some of that can be found right here on UA-cam... these old planes will soon take their place alongside them in the grand adventures of yesteryear.

    Ive just binged watched a few of these episodes and i seem to be watching them in an odd fashion. I started watching one as a recommendation, got hooked, and tried to watch them in the order that they appear in their playlist but when it comes to the end and it previews the next episode I've already watched it. These episodes of Ice Pilots NWT need numbering so we can watch them in the order that they were filmed. Good series

      Yah a buffalo was water bomber had a hydraulic failure and couldn't get the gear down so they did what anyone would've done they landed... Without gear on a runway, if it were my choice I would've just landed on the water next to the airport those aircraft are designed to land on it with no gear anyway so it would've been much easier not necessarily safer but easier for sure

Just sounds like a fly by the seat of your paints organization. Way too much drama to be safe.
