    A WW2 pilot told me a story of flying C-47 in the Pacific. He got lost in a storm, everyone was sick in the back of the plane ( they were fighter pilots). A hole opened up in the clouds and there was the island they were headed for. By the grace of god they survived.

      A hole in the clouds saved us several times in PNG in the late sixties. The technology back then was nothing like it is today. However my late husband got us through safely every time. War debris was everywhere then too and every so often you'd hear a bomb go off somewhere in the jungle in the middle of the night.

      My father in law flew over there too. He had some stories. Ended up being an instructor for c-47 and ended up owning a hardware store for 50 years after he got out. Didn’t want to fly anymore when he got home.

      Here is the God's word, 1Cor 1: 21: "For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe."
      The God saves people by preaching. He has nothing to do with your bloody wars.
      The problem is Devil runs the world. He is lier and murderer. That's why we've got the Gospel about the God's kingdom.
      Jehovah would put everything in order. The dead will be resurected and we'll meet our beloved ones again! :-)

    Hi Ryan another great video mate. 11:45 you were talking about early flying in PNG. My late grandfather's best friend and former seminary classmate was a man named Leo Arkfeld. Fr. Arkfeld was sent as a missionary to PNG around 1947, and then consecrated bishop in 1948 at the young age of 36. At the time he held the record for youngest bishop in the world. His new diocese covered pretty much all of PNG and some of the eastern islands (New Britain, New Ireland, Bougainville etc). The only way he could get to the dozens of his mission stations was by flying! So, from about 1949 onward, as part of his missionary efforts to bring the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and also to bring so much practical materiel to his spread out and isolated flock, he flew himself constantly all over PNG. He was known as "The Flying Bishop."

    Hi Ryan, another channel I watch is blancolirio (Juan Browne), he owns an Aviat Husky, and has flown into some secluded fields out west to camp. He also is an avid motorcycle trail rider throughout the western states as well. He would be a good contact for those adventures…he flys out of Grass Valley CA, also a base for Cal Fire which he reports on. Maybe one day you could fly for them fighting fires, they could use an exceptional pilot as yourself. Good luck in whatever you decide to do.

    The VOR system was first introduced in the 1930s, but didn't enter significant commercial use until the early 1950s ([1]). It became much more practical with the introduction of low-cost solid state receivers in the 1960s.
    I believe all or any radio navigation during WWII was done by Radio Direction Finder, or possibly in the Loran on board ships.

    Enjoyed the flight back to Goroka with your family. Before GPS, the bush pilots in PNG did an incredible job flying and navigating to bush airstrips. It took some of the best pilots who were up to overcoming the challenges of flying there for sure. I think the ADF was there best nav aid. Thanks Ryan, great video.

    Ryan. It made me emotional to see the aerial view of Madang and the Lighthouse. For a while, my father was the District Commissioner of Madang and we lived right next to the Lighthouse. We will always remember the wonderful, brave Coastwatchers. The Lighthouse was erected for them.
    I've been all over the Territory but in my humble opinion, Madang is the most beautiful town.
    Yes...flying was mainly VFR so we knew where all our backup runways were. For instance, flying into Bundi was always tricky so we were always well aware of where Dumpu was. In my days it was a long runway completely covered in Marsden matting.
    Indeed, I just happened to be at Dumpu when Ray Jaensch pranged his Porter and we lost a wonderful Missionary pilot with other deaths --- and Freddy Kaad became a quadriplegic. Bobby Gibbs arrived in his Saab to see if he could help. A wonderful pilot.
    The first time I handled the controls was with the help of Fr. Joe Walachy. Good luck to you mate. Thanks for the service. G'day.

The Highlander and the Kitfox. I chose the Kitfox for cabin space and also I like that the controls are all push rods and bell cranks. I didn't like the feel of the cable systems when I flew the Highlander. Im not knocking the Highlander It is a superb option, but the Kitfox was for me. All best in your new venture and i hope to see you back on here in the near future.

With a new lady in my life, I completed the training in three, flying Bell 47s and a Jet Ranger. My Examiner asked which I preferred: fixed or rotary Wing. My response was: "If the U.S. Navy won't issue me an F-14, Any Helicopter would do". Never had so much fun airborne.

    Was common practice if not direct orders to not fly over PNG in WWII. Several B-25’s from my dad’s unit along with multiple other military aircraft were lost and never to be seen again in the jungles of PNG. Canopy so thick that it trapped in the smoke from the wreckage making it impossible to find the aircraft and it’s crew. So it was standard practice to fly along the coastline even if it meant longer missions and the consumption of more precious fuel.

    With the way you approach things I think you could take on anything. I can paint a picture of what it was like flying with my Dad is the 60s, basically taking the low route every time (except for going out to the coast) and slipping from gap to gap, if the gaps where closed it meant another night at a mission station. As a kid I used to enjoy winding out the aerial, basically a funnel at the end of a wire on a spool mounted centre wing in the cockpit roof. Does anyone remember these? Not sure what frequency these were for but it must have been a long wavelength as you needed out 20 yards to get reception!

      20 yards (or a little more) of wire would make a decent half-wave antenna for the 40 meter band on HF which is around 7 MHz (or a little higher) in frequency.

    You and Trent Palmer should become buddies. He makes great Kitfox content and looks like he has a lot of fun, too.

    By the way, the NDB technology was developed in 1932. There is a possibility that, during World War II, they may have been able to use the non-directional beacon for navigation in Papua New Guinea.

    A lot of pilots died in WW2 by getting lost or disoriented in what we call IFR. There wasn't any radio navigation because the enemy could follow the same signals, same as all the lighthouses turned their lights off for shipping. Read "The 1000 Mile War" sometime -- the greatest enemy for both sides in the Aleutians was the weather. They routinely flew in weather that today would keep even Cat II aircraft grounded.

    The San Juan Islands in WA State are the ultimate PNW get-away & are gorgeous from air & land. SJI's airport is adjacent to town & the island has fun national parks, views of Olympic mountains. Orcas Island has a beautiful view from its mountain. Don't forget to see Boeing jet manufacturing at Paine Field & Ft Casey's "disappearing guns"on Whidbey is. are again fun from air & land.

    thanks Ryan, I haven't commented for a while but really looking forward to your state side flying adventures. would be great if you could work some A&P into the videos. would be cool to see a collaboration with flying cowboys or visit Jonas. wish I could have made to Osh this year to meet you. MBP is still my favorite channel. be safe!

    Hello. Je suis sur X-Plane11 et tu m'a fait adoré le Kodiak 100, j'ai d'ailleurs acheté le Thranda Kodiak 100 . Je suis tes aventures avec passion et j'espère que tu vas continuer. J'aurais bien voulu voler comme toi, mais à 71 ans, c'est un peu tard 😂.
    Bon courage et bons vols.

    Definitely will follow your channel even if you decide to become a plumber (no insult intended to that profession) because I know it will still be interesting and educational with you talking/teaching about it.

    I imagine those Pilots would have had to have balls of steel when there was no GPS or vor's. I think anyone who does Mountain flying even with the GPS and all the other tools still has a lot of balls.
