Me starting up the DC6

A video my friend Sam took of me starting the engines on the DC6 to fly to Venetie

Those propellers are HUGE

Next time could you show the start up from the cockpit? I would love to see the start up procedure. This is such a cool video. You don't see these anymore and it's a beautiful plane.

@@ericbitzer5247 I'd like to but the other guys don't really like cameras :(

Hey there Captain, I flew in a four seater once, I was scared shitless.. I don’t think I could make it on that flying weedeater either 😂😂😂😂Totally cool Thanks for posting

[@Levikj]

Hahaha love it! Flying weed eater, ain't far from the truth

Great video! You're so lucky you get to have time on those planes! I know Everts still has the 6's but do they put them in rotation anymore? I see mostly jets it seems now.

[@therickman1990]

They do still list them on their website as part of the fleet, same as the C-46

@@therickman1990 after asking this I found an N no. from another yt video, input it to a plane tracking site and it showed a 30 min trip taken delivering fuel from Fairbanks so I guess they do just very limited runs
