My uncle, Max, flew 172s out of Wewak for years in the 60s, 70s and 80s. I've read his books and discussed his flying but never understood, the shear skill and bravery that he and others had until I watched your videos. Thanks for opening our eyes to whole new world of flying!
wow, 172's in PNG. Must have stayed down in the lowlands
We do appreciate that you keep making videos even after four years. :)
From what I've seen, PNG is the "Hard Mode" of piloting. You have tropical convection, massive mountains and very unwise locals using the runways for all sorts of shenanigans. I wanna try!
😂👌👍👏👏👏
that's a pretty good explanation
Thanks Ryan for sharing your daily adventures. I am not a pilot, but I definitely understand that this is a challenging job under this conditions that you face in this area of the world.
It is for sure helpful that you grew up in PNG to know more about all conditions than the usual pilots.
I absolutely love your videos and I hope you will continue to do this for quite a while.
Always safe flights and landings! Mitch
I was blessed with the opportunity to fly in a Kodiak about 14 years ago shortly after the Kodiak was released. My late wife was in the Hospital at the University of Tenness Medical Center, but she released me to go take a look at the new bird that had flown in to do demo flights at Knoxville Downtown ISLAND (KDKX if I remember). I wasn't going to fly due to lack of money, but when a military helicopter pilot heard my story, he paid for my flight! I wish I could remember our pilot's name, but I do think it was the same color scheme as your planes. Keep the blue side up!
To me even this amount of cloud is very stressful, especially in the latter part of this flight. The clouds look so inviting and soft, so often some rock solid ground is hidden within the clouds at PNG
You are great at reading those clouds. Enjoy your videos.
I really enjoyed these "Third Party" views of the Kodiak landing and taking off from one of your "bush" runways- it lends perspective. Give you (viewers) another feel for what you do. Keep up the good work. Stay safe.
Great VFR video, Ryan. You demonstrate well the value of proficiency and familiarity of the area you are flying in. It takes time and patience to be good at it. TY for taking the time to share it with us all.
A masterclass in practical flying! Flying A to B using IFR certainly has it's uses but this VFR method is way more interesting. I hadn't realised you have to fly VFR in a single engined aircraft when carrying fare paying passengers in PNG - without your VFR skills a lot of them would have very long waits getting to or from their remote villages. Interesting that you "cut your teeth" in the Goroka - Haia - Wabo area and I think I see how it would have helped your development as a pilot. Even in simmulation it's a fascinating area to fly in - the terrain is varried but conducive to learning to read the ground and fly an appropriate course. Given the altitude of some of the mountains in the area it amazes me that it's possible to thread a route through them at seven thousand feet in VFR even with quite a lot of cloud around. The Asaro River is so often clear of cloud and gives a very handy back door into the Goroka Valley. The inclusion of the ATC comms gives a really good insight into the world you fly in. A lovely video Ryan - thank you.
definitely knowing the terrain helps with navigating here in PNG. Without that knowledge, life would be very stressful
Nice landing and take-off (heavy footwork) from Andrew - oh, he learned from you, I forgot. Joke aside, Andrew is a cool guy, great to see him on the team.
That was a perfect landing at the end of the video. Cheers+
Thanks a lot!
Love these videos. I feel like I am along for the ride and keeping the pilot company as he flies across some of the most beautiful and dangerous terrain in the world.
Living the dream my friend, wishing you many more safe journeys ahead
MBP hi from Alberta, Canada. So great to see Bush Pilot Aviation from another part of the globe. Obviously we pilot mainly de Havilland Canada (Viking Aircraft) Twin Otters here. However with Sandpoint Idaho so close to us we see our fair share of Quest Kodiak aircraft too. Both trusting the Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6 though.
Have been enjoying your channel for a couple of years now,. Never tire of watching you apply excellent airmanship skills in the very challenging terrain/weather of PNG. Thanks
So impressed with your thought process and decision making, which makes for an incredibly entertaining video. Well played again, sir! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Quite gorgeous clouds in this flight! Again, always impressed with your piloting skills! Thanks for sharing!🙏
Glad you enjoyed it
Great job and I believe best landing I ever seen,thanks for showing telling keep up the great flying Ryan. See you on the next video Ryan have a good one see ya bye.
I love the time lapse videos, would love to see some 5-10 minutes of just time lapse for relaxing before bed or just to relax 🙏
always love watching and listening to details. too good
Much more difficult to fly in the highlands of PNG than most anywhere else. Thanks for the flight. Bushyboy Oz.
Ryan
Great video
So amazing how you read terrine and weather
You have a great mental process and memory
I love it
My best wishes from Las Vegas Craig
What a perfect landing, you "greased it" also nose wheel perfectly on the center line. Well Done.
See you on the next flight.
Good to know you still enjoy making these videos, I still enjoy watching them. Your narration is over half the fun.
God keep you and your family safe, healthy and happy.
New to your channel. Many years ago I used to live in PNG my dad was an aircraft engineer back in the day. Originally with patair then Anset airlines than air new Guinea would love to see shots of Moresby if you get down there to see how much it has changed. Cheers
Great landing & takeoff footage. Gives us an idea of sound people hear on the ground. Awesome instructional training for VFR only.
Another great flight. I've never had a chance to fly in a Cessna Grand Caravan, but it's one of my favorite aircraft. They just seem to be so solid and reasonably easy to fly. When you're flying in that part of the world, the last thing you want is surprises from your aircraft. Nice landing, not rushed, just flew the plane down until it touched.
Cool video. Thanks for posting. Love to watch the performance of the mighty Kodiak and you awesome piloting skills. Greetings from a CFI in Las Vegas, NV.
Superb....thank you.
thanks great flight Ryan!
Very nice flight Ryan. Thank you.
Good to have you back!
Great channel, keeps me locked in each Sunday!
Hey Ryan, Thank you again for another great upload. Sunday is not complete without a window into PNG. Amazing flying, amazing place. :-)
Glad you enjoyed it!
thanks for making them is aweosme to watch every single time
glad you enjoyed it
Thanks Ryan for another great video
Great landing so smooth
Stay safe in PNG
👍😎🛫
Absolutely enjoyed the video Ryan!
Beautiful landing!!!! NICE!!
Thanks....
Great job Ryan!
What a beautiful landing
Thanks Ryan…. I’ve been viewing your YT videos for over 6/12 now and thoroughly enjoying them! This one was a favourite ‘cos you were explaining v clearly VFR requirements & how to navigate tricky mountain passes in cloud! At 75 yo, I’ve restarted my model flying hobby in UK & bought a new PC to fly (mostly above ground, hopefully! 😄) with X-Plane & soon with MSFS 2020. I’ve just purchased the Thranda Kodiak 100 add on for X-Plane which I’m really looking fwd to fly. I’m thinking of purchasing your flight training sw/video…. how much detail do you go into ref pre-flight checks & start up please? I did some glider/sailplane flying in my youth that I loved & it initiated my love of flying. Good luck with all your flying in PNG & my God keep you & family safe! Very best wishes…. Jonathan 👍🙏🏼🛩️
Service in a beautiful place.
Très impressionnant et très intéressant ! Merci
16:23 Yeah you don't know how much depth perpection means to you till you see it in VR or IRL.
Really enjoy your videos. I bet not only the experience you have gained over the years makes you more confident, but the avionics have improved for situational awareness. GREAT JOB !!!!
Great job Ryan, you make it look so easy and it’s not!
Flawless landing! Also the amount of knowledge you concentrate about PNG is out of this world. 👏
Thanks again!
Good morning from Minnesota USA! Fun flight!
Top notch all they way
nice
I thought I caught a glimpse of a golf course when you were approaching Garoka so I got on Google Earth and, sure enough, the golf course is just southwest of the airport. Neat!
......they play golf???? 0_o
yes, there is a golf course in Goroka. Not really fully operational anymore, but there is one
@@MissionaryBushPilot .....may be good for a Frisbee golf outing???
That terrain is incredible, make sure you have a 100% operational aircraft before you even attempt to fly over it.
Piece o' cake and some nice cloud surfing. Nice shades too but I'll have to stick with my prescription Raybans 😎😉
Love the videos - quick question: at 6:11, if you fly sitting upright like that, why is the seat so reclined? The multiple camera angles are incredible! Mike in Kansas, USA.
I only sit up when I need to, but 90% of the flight I'm just sitting back
Happy Father’s Day Ryan!! God bless you and your family… love the video thanks for all you do!! Question, How many hours have you logged in the Kodiak?🙏🏻😊👍🏻
Thank you. I think I have around 2500 in the Kodiak
@@MissionaryBushPilot
Awesome thank you
Hey Ryan, have you ever flown the Cessna Caravan? How is the Kodiak different?
Why TAWS off for this departure?
Ryan, Oshkosh, this year?
You always seem to land on 35 Rt
@missionarybushpilot what app is that for your flight planning?
Thanks for posting! Are you also allowed to use products like Rain-X on your windscreen? I would guess the water would be beating of onces the engine starts.
We actually use Pledge furniture polish on the windshield
Just wondering, do you talk your way through flight even when you are not recording for a video?
Is there a camera with a different focal length that you can use for forward facing VFR cloud shots? At 50mm (35mm equivalent) distances should match your visual.
What was Andrew using that jack for?
So for all the next videos if you could film in IMAX 3D that would be great 👍. Just kidding and cool flight through that weather.
Thanks for another adventurous trip. Yes hazardous flying. What iin the would would you do with an engine/power issue just after takeoff. Wow, no where to land as so many of these departures.
it would more than likely be a crash landing at 99% of our locations
@@MissionaryBushPilot Well, the lord is with you. And your mechanics.
..are those locals still cannibals ? 😁
How did you pay for all ur flight training to get ur minimums for Ethnos360?
I looked up your tail number, and see that it suffered "separation of the wing root fairing and then impacting the left hand tailplane leading edge" in April 2022. Is there a video of this incident? What happened?
No I didn't post a video of that. It did happen to me though. It was a non event.. we didn't even know what hit the back, we thought it was a bird
@@MissionaryBushPilot Thanks... glad you landed ok!
Thank you for bringing us along for the ride. I really like your videos, I find them entertaining. From the channel name I assume you are a person of faith. Who do you follow, Jesus, Allah, etc.? What made you decide to start bush flying?
I work with Ethnos360. You can check out their website for our statement of faith
@@MissionaryBushPilot Ethnos360 seems to be a great ministry. Thank you for all you do in bringing Jesus Christ to Papua New Guinea. I will be praying for you and Ethnos360.
Maybe fs2024 will have chickens and people on a wet runway! Supposed to be realistic, right? 🤣

"The Most Dangerous Place In the World to Fly" Careful Ryan,
I've known a few Alaska, Northern Canada bush pilots that would disagree with you. :)
very true, there are a lot of unforgiving areas in this world that are not the safest for flying
“Hard marginal”
Considering the repeated and blatant failures of air traffic controllers in the U.S., I’d say flying anywhere in America is the most dangerous place to fly in the world.
The US is still WAY safer than most countries.
Ridiculous. America is one of safest places to fly.
Flying around Mount Cameroon is far more dangerous, Judging by the aluminium spreading around it's slopes.
Even Dick Rutan nearly avoided hitting it on his round the world flight
REMEMBER
NO, your memory does not reach that far
Keep the nose wheel of the ground on landing
“We came within one mile of dead, halfway up the eastern slope,” Dick Rutan
@@coldsamon exacty, that caused the split up with Yaeger.
Starting to descend into Clickbait titles I see. Shame since your content is always good.
got to sell the new paper some how
Do you have to be a Christian to be a pilot?
