    It's amazing. I don't know how much to get flying license in your country, but definitely much easier than in Russia ( It looks like to drive a car, but in 3d. Nature is impressive! Hopefully I get there one day..

      It would be very cool to be able to fly in Russia, probably much like Alaska, but bigger. So vast an area to explore. It would be a bush pilots paradise.

    I flew into Chelatna Lake lodge back in 1989 in my 170 { 5786} on skiis. It had just snowed 30'' and it was a bear getting out of there . My homestead was in Yenlo Mts. {20 miles awy} and was delivering some groceries from Big Lake to the lake. Boy, they built alot more cabins since the 80s and 90s. . Back then everybody knew everybody but in winter there is only 1 person caretaking the property . Later I moved to McGrath and flew outta there. Now, that was a wild place.

    It’s a real pleasure to watch your videos when you’re a flight of two. My wife is my XC navigator/extra eyes in our C182. Maybe the day will come when we fly side-by-side like the days we rode our cruisers CHIP style on interstates and country highways. Keep em coming.

    Hey Jon, wow what beauty!! Alaska is hard to explain to someone that has never been up there. I was stationed in the Army up on a mountain near Fairbanks for almost 2 years, what an experience that was. We played in the "Midnight Sun Softball Tournament" against Air Force and other Army teams. It's just like it says Midnight Sun, we played one game at Midnight and of course there are no need for lights on the field, it was kinda surreal doing that. We weren't too far from the Arctic Circle and the weather there was lots different than down around Anchorage as you probably know. But anyway thanks for sharing your flights they brought back lots of memories of over 50 years ago when I was there. I'll have to say hasn't changed much, LOL.!! Looking forward to see more of your adventures up in Alaska.

    Stunning Jon! We fly every where we can with our TR182 RG but nothing would be better than some tailwheel and big wheels up in AK. It is a dream of ours to do one day and stay up at the Ultimathule Lodge. I'll let them do the flying though since I have zero backcountry or tailwheel time....LOL! What an adventurous weekend Jon. Putting this in the top 5 of my bucket list.

    @dzurisintube Před 4 lety +3

    WOW that short final control jam. I will always remember the Kings talk about load management and how important it is. As I remember they had an off airport landing in which some tools were in the back seat and turned into flying daggers. Another case I remember was a man flying with his dog who managed to jam the controls somehow. In this case you definitely could have been killed by pizza and made your final headlines. Good lesson for everyone now that we fly with so much stuff in the cockpit that could pose an unseen hazard.

    Very nice entertaining video! Thanks for sharing. Quite similar to our backcountry video (also with a Patrol) inflight camera angles, etc, but you've added the drone footage and narrative, which adds a lot. Question: What is that hanging just in front of your tail wheel? Looks like a camera but don't see any footage from that viewpoint.

I live up here, been lucky to fly with some of Alaska’s great bush pilots over the years, you can relate to my favorite Alaskan saying, “ you can see more in one day flying in Alaska, then most people see in a lifetime”!!! So true.
