Hats off to the pilot...some skilled flying there! And to the people who built that runway...alot of labour, carving out a runway on a mountain side! Wonderful job to all!!! Blessings to all!!
Salute to these village people in the mountains of Papua..they are extraordinary..how they built a runway on top of the mountain..even without the help of a machine..it's hard to believe but it's real..and how the pilot landed his plane up there..hats -off !!
Ive spent over 20 years working and living in PNG. So much of what these guys do isn't even about flying. The respect and love they show for these people has far reaching effects on these communities. Sometimes the only hope these people have is the planes arrival, with much needed food and medicines. I visited many communities in the "mix-master belong Jesus", (helicopter), and those visits were always eagerly anticipated..
Just another day at the office for an experienced bush pilot.....he knows his airplane, and his basic flying skills are ALL there. I was a CFI-I and stick-and-rudder teaching was my forte. This is that concept applied in the "real world" to perform needed services to very isolated people who depend on these flights. Kudos to this pilot !!
While taking my father in a Cessna to visit and buzz his brother's home in northern Minnesota he opened up about his time in the Pacific. He said the last time he was in a small plane he was delivering a pig which he held in his lap to a small village in the jungle. The pig was a way of thanking the villagers for their help with driving the Japanese off of their island. I wish my father had been able to get some pictures of the pilot and the strip they surely would have been remarkable.
For reasons youtube suggested me your channel and videos and I love it. The flying, the scenery, amazing to watch. Especially only with subtitles and no commentary it is very enjoyable to watch.
I really enjoyed watching this. I’m looking forward to seeing the rest of your videos. Thanks for putting these together to share your experience. It is so unique.
Greatly enjoyed this video! Amazing ops, and extremely well conducted imo. Somehow you still managed to preserve plenty of safety margin. Thanks for sharing! Best regards from Brasilia, Brazil.
طريقة تصوير رائعة لهذا الهبوط ، هذا رعب حقيقي ، جعلني أتنفس الصعداء)Great way to shoot this landing, this is real horror, it made me breathe a sigh of relief
As much as we, meaning those of us with all the corporate ideals of what is supposed to make us happy, those people living in that beautiful mountainous setting are living a really sweet life! KISS is an acronym their lives means! Those trails between homes are what we work 50 weeks for to go hiking for our 2 week vavcation.
Not to mention the eggs, the pots and the pans. Having spent close to 40 years flying in the cloistered airline industry I doubt if I would survive a week doing this sort of work.
Great video! Gotta say, that's a nice steep sloping runway. I used to fly for Douglas Airways some 30+ years ago on the other side of the border and never had a dull moment flying there.

wow. It's really fun to experience flying with unusual terrain and pilots can interact more with the local people there. what a very valuable experience from a noble job
Nice video all around. Good cameras setup, good editing and interesting captions that add to the overall content.....not to mention some very interesting flying situations. The PIP piece with the rudder work was particularly nice, nice touch repeating the landing footage from different camera angles. I subscribed.
I am from New Delhi, India. When I saw the air strip I was very frightful to see the security of all. Hats off to pilot as well as all those involved in it. I pray god to keep u all safe. Love from new friend from India.
Fantastic scenery the Star Mountains. I worked at the Ok Tedi mine in the early 1980s, also Ertzberg mine across the border. Yes, the local people were always friendly despite the mines being problematic to say the least. Ertzberg didn’t even have an airstrip, we flew in with an ex-US army Iroquois. I seem to remember the Ok Tedi strip was quite short in a Fokker Friendship.
Good thing you guys got the right machine for this task. Love the Porter. Great airplane. Beta helps this go a lot smoother too. Love these shenanigans!!

As a retired airline captain I take my hat off to you guys flying like that.
@Donsland - Like. I imagine you seen some sphincter squeeze moments in your time, narly weather
It’s difference between pilot and " push- buton "
Yah this is incredible
Could you make video of your activity now?
Most skilled pilots
The pilot's confidence about the route and the strip they are going to land on made it look beautifully easy. Good work.
I watched your face closely during the landing and not one little twinge of nervousness. Outstanding!!!!!!
Most would have a warm lump in their panties making that landing.
Smoooooth all the way. Seeing those kids faces as they experience a drone is priceless. Thanks for sharing. Keep them videos coming !!
Great job in and out. The kids faces watching the drone. Truly a life line to the outside world.
It is indeed Daniel. Thanks so much for your comment 🙏🙏
My dad helped build runways like that in PNG as a Kiap in the 60s and 70s.
I was born up in Goroka 👌
Oh, super landscapes! Mountains and fog! Clear sky for you! Thanks!

Amazing video quality ! The Pilatus PC 6 is my favourite bush plane!
Thank you for your time and service to them.
I love your drone video in every post. Pace mace dong senyum saja... 😁😁😍😍
Best bush plane ever! You guys have balls of steel flying anywhere in West Papua or Png highlands!

Thanks for sharing, mate! Really felt I was there!

Amazing scenery in Papua
I have seen bush runways in Idaho that make this look stellar
For reasons youtube suggested me your channel and videos and I love it. The flying, the scenery, amazing to watch. Especially only with subtitles and no commentary it is very enjoyable to watch.
Great community from the pilots to the diggers who made the run way !
Much respect and admiration!

Woww you make fun with natives in this moutains
Nice job with fully adventure taste 😁
Thanks for capturing such beauty
I love those Pilatus Porters!

I salute to This pilot. he is a real hero i have seen in my life 😘😘😘
Porter is an absolute beast... the real bush plane
great job dear

Cool, nicely presented. Thank you
*Two words to describe his talent... Skilled Professional*
it takes balls of titanium to land in a runway like that. hats off to you man.
I couldn't find a cooler video, this is awesome
Wow, thanks so much!
I have no qualifications to say this, but my God you're an incredible pilot. So glad I got recommended this channel/video. Wow.
Big salute to the Pilot ❤️
Flying on a single engnie aircraft over such mountains - brr, goosebumps!
Very nice see that people smiling in the end! Great take of and landing.
Such a pleasure to watch a true master of his craft at work! That was amazing!
Awesome pilot. And beautiful village up there in heaven.
Again awesome footages of the Porter and area. Keep up with these videos. Terima kasih banyak.

Congratulations to you guys and also this pilatus porter is such a equipment…👍

What an incredibly green place. Snowing here today.
What a wonderful wonderful service you provide to this village. Makes me proud to be a pilot and I wish I could help.
Happy you feel that way! Thanks so much for watching 🙏

Hopefully more of us realize this!
THE MORE I WATCH THESE VIDEOS THE MORE I WANT TO FLY MY PAPER AIRPLANE. GOOD JOB SHARING YOUR VIDEOS. STAY SAFE PILOT.
Fly what ya got!
Gorgeous!
As a non-pilot, as I read through the comments how easy this pilot made it look. What a pro!!
Single engine ops over that terrain? Can't believe the max takeoff weight isn't exceeded once the pilot's balls are factored in.
Hahaha that's a good one Nick 🤣 above the size of the balls, one needs to love what one does. Thanks for your comment!
Its a turbine engine so that helps
The type of ops the Porter was designed for.
Large balls affect the load chart mate.....lol...
Not to mention the eggs, the pots and the pans. Having spent close to 40 years flying in the cloistered airline industry I doubt if I would survive a week doing this sort of work.
Thats one hell of a ride.
Goosebump short Take of and landing. Hats off.
Nice flight and the place.
What a wonderful thing for these people living remotely to have this contact. Well done pilot and those financing the aeroplane.
Great video! Gotta say, that's a nice steep sloping runway. I used to fly for Douglas Airways some 30+ years ago on the other side of the border and never had a dull moment flying there.
You will remember Avdev then......based in Kiunga.
The pilot is very calm and professional. This is a very good video.
Great video, subscribed.
Super cool video thanks for sharing this with us.
It's nice to watch a nature gifted scenario like this , njoy a typical ride bro .
Thnx 4 uploading .
