If you are looking for some other flight vlog style channels, I recommend checking out channels such as Trent Palmer, 310 Pilot, Baron Pilot, Niko's Wings, Jonas Marcinko, steveo1kinevo, SoCal Flying Monkey, Premier 1 Driver, or CitationMax.
I feel I've been taking for granted how good this channel is, so I'm going to say it again: from the technical details of the flight, all the way to the editing, the camera placement, sound... What you do is excellence.
Thank you, I appreciate it. I am really trying to make them more immersive
I second that. These videos are gems, and have been for a long time. The visuals are stunning, editing as well, and the amount of information and insight Ryan provides is amazing. Super enjoyable to watch. It is easy to overlook how much work it obviously takes to do what he does and we should remind ourselfs of it, as you just did.
True
except for his hair seemingly uncombed and sloppy
Also couldn't agree more, have watched the channel for ages and this video made me think exactly the same...it is excellence
I teach a year 9 STEM class called Aviation Technology and have been showing some of your videos to the students. They are amazed at your flights and the professionalism you exhibit throughout your flights. Later this week I'm going to have them recreate this flight in MSFS 2020.
great to hear
This video is amazing, thank you. It’s so great to see Aviation being taught in y9! Some years ago, Flight was an optional module in Science and I taught it after having previously trained as a glider pilot. All my students got one question wrong on the external exam. It was simple Q about how to make a plane turn left. My students were correct, but the answers had not been written by aviators. Hope the exam boards have learned by now. Wish you and your students well!
A guy from my neighborhood that grew up with my dad went as a missionary to Irian Jaya in ~1956. He and his wife were there until 1995. I know their son who grew up there and is a trained pilot. I’ll send him this video as I’d imagine he can really relate to this content. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
As a commercial pilot flying choppers in Malaysia, it doesn’t matter if passengers have an international flight same/ next day! It only matters if we operate safely. I’d rather lose a flight and some money, than my health/ life…
My thoughts exactly! He shouldn't have flown until he had a clear path to his destination. Thank god mainstream commercial pilots don't make decisions like this.
@@phuketexplorer - - He had a plan. And he had three backup plans. This is more than what ‘mainstream’ pilots plan for (who are required to file a single alternate, and reserve fuel) and only if the primary airport is forecast to be far below minimums.
What he did was IFR plan for the primary airport, and an alternate IFR airport, and another IFR airport, and then, if all of those failed, he had a VFR airport planned - all within his planned IFR Fuel Reserve. He landed at his backup IFR/VFR airport. This is highly, highly competent Single Pilot Cockpit Resource Management (CRM). To do all this, in the bush, safely and competently, is a testament to his skill as a pilot, the awesome platform that is the Quest Kodiak, and his calling as a missionary.
Rather than put his safety, and the safety of the airplane, in jeopardy, he executed a landing at an alternate. If he were to wait until the ‘path was clear’, very few flying services would take place here, as high mountains and low clouds trapped in the mountains are the norm.
Get-There-Itis
Not sure why he gets so much praise. Did it work because out because it was safe or was it lucky? Luck will not always be on your side.
@brandonfoss8540 - because it's not get-there-itis. It's "Hey, these guys are depending on me, and if I can make it happen, I will".
To me, it seems he had a great primary plan, a backup (which he executed), another backup, and then a VFR flight backup - all within his conservative fuel reserves. That would be the antithesis of "get-there-itis" and had zero to due to luck.
@@arctain1He's an accident waiting to happen, and his LUCK won't last forever.
Balls of steel, so far one of the best pilots in youtube. Who else got the balls to land commited like that ? Great fly mate. Tailwinds and blue skies.
Not boring at all, it's actually more intense flying almost basically 'blind' and not knowing if you'll be able to land, and then having to not know if you can even land at a contingency airstrip.
Also - Ryan simultaneously making intense time/fuel/weather/landing calculations - "Ooo look at the cool waterfall over there!" 😂 😂😂
You gotta keep your job interesting....right?
I can’t get enough of this channel, it is absolutely fantastic, everything that he explain, how he eddit the videos, all the desition tha he has to make during the flight, and of course, what an outstanding pilot, thanks for showing all of your flight exoeriences, I do really enjoy everyone of you videos.
Glad you enjoy it!
I've watched a lot of these videos now including the Kitfox series. Your calm and methodical decision making using all the resources you can access, your flight planning, situational awareness, local knowledge and precise flying in an environment as challenging and unforgiving of errors as PNG sets a great example of how to do it well. Watching you has helped to make me a better pilot.
Glad you like them!
You, sir, are an AMAZING pilot! You may not realize this, but you could walk into just about any airline, and you'd outperform almost everyone just based on your proficiency, as demonstrated here in this video. Thanks so much for sharing your decision-making and thought process!
We lived at Tiom for a couple of years. You guys put your lives on the line every day. Thanks so much for all you do.
By FAR the most fun video of this channels till date (to me at least). Definitely takes me back with my dad in 1992 delivering supplies to remote Brazilian Army locations deep in the Amazon forest, in his Cesna Caravan. Weather was always cloud heavy, and unpredictable, but super fun flights due to that. Me & brothers had THE best childhood ever.
Again, Ryan, a super video. I was really impressed with how calmly you dealt with the IFR white out conditions and I’m always impressed by how far you think ahead to prepare for any situation. Super professional! Thanks for sharing the trip with us.
Kudos to the ground crew keeping you prepped and capable. Thanks for those scenes of them at work.
Thank you Ryan for an awesome adventure.....recovering from back surgery and your videos are a blessing to watch.....
I wish I could give two thumbs up or even ten! Not boring at all!! This is exactly the kind of decision making and focus that safe pilots need to see.
I was saying to myself out loud, “don’t go today, don’t go!” and then next thing I watch is you the next day saying you’d delayed a day. Then on pins & needles and loved how you planned / programmed the good weather coastal airport in ahead of time, skipping the idea of even thinking about returning to Goroka on that day. Nice!
Love the channel; we aren’t religious people but it’s wonderful to see what impact regardless of small you might think it is can make to these isolated communities; let’s call it like it is…..without you Ryan and your fellow pilots and whole team these people wouldn’t have access to life saving facilities or the basics needed for life. Well done 👍
Pretty sure they were all just living out there chilling for a long time before missionaries showed up but I get where you're coming from.
Yes Ryan, you produce and provide an outstanding product and content! I am retired Navy Captain, never sky pilot but I definitely enjoy your stuff!
Neat videos! I worry when I see bad weather along your flight route. Please continue to be super careful. Single engine, bad weather, high terrain all certainly keep you on your toes. Prayers and good vibes your way!
Wow! Another great all round video - I very much enjoy this format including pre-flight preparations and planning along with the actual flight. Just another day in the life of a PNG bush pilot - but that one was pretty stressful. Hope there is a video of the second attempt to reach Norambi - your skills in reading the cloud formations are epic.
Came across your channel purely by accident, and boy am I glad that I did! Your videos are truly interesting and your content is excellent, clear concise and very informative! What a truly amazing job you’re doing over there in Papua New Guinea, a Country that I must admit I’m not too familiar with, but from what I’ve seen so far, looks an incredible place! I’ll certainly be checking out your videos from now on! Thanks for the flight, and safe flying!
This was a fantastic CZcams. Sorry you didn’t win anything as to me you are the winners of the most humble,courteous, calm and fun sailors on CZcams! You really are the Best of England!
Dude this channel is never boring regardless of the weather!! Nice work!!
So good being able to watch your decision making process in real time. Thanks for all the work putting it together 11/10
Some very dicey weather conditions! Good flying and mission management Ryan, thank you for the Vlog!
Ryan, I really enjoy your channel. Your dedication to the planning and execution of the process of the flight from beginning to end is humbling, you are the best. It's great to hear how you think, and the reasons for the decisions you make in such a dynamic environment. It feels like you really enjoy the editing and production as well, you are very good at it. And of course the terrain, the area and your service to these communities I find fascinating. Thank you for what you do!
No mater how many of your videos I watch Ryan, I'm always anxious watching you land. I get the same feeling when I'm clocking up hours on Microsoft Flight Sim. Always a phew moment when we touch down.
Incredibly tough conditions Ryan, handled like a pro as always👍
It’s not boring outside; reminds me of the days I was trucking around at those levels in our 182 - IFR in and between layers, sometimes on top, donning the sunglasses and admiring the speed at which we were coasting along the clouds before plunging in there again, hand-flying most of the time. Oh the good days… Memories to last for the remaining - God willing - twenty years or so of a lifetime.
I am most impressed with your single pilot CRM - You work the Garmin to its extent, and you do it well. And yes, your comment about this being different than IFR in the States was well-said. I think the closest I get is “…maintain your own obstacle and terrain obstruction until…” MVA is reached. It does help, I am sure, to have such an amazing bush platform that is the Quest Kodiak…
I am thankful to God for your service and your calling. Keep spreading the good news!
I enjoyed watching the video. Great views & flying on edge, providing a necessary service & fairplay to you Captain. 👍
Thanks for sharing your talents and experiences. Great job explaining your flight planning.
Tough flight. Hope you and your passengers made it home safely and on time. 🙏
Nail biter...great landing and navigation through the clouds...nice one
I'm not a pilot, it is the absolute trust in the systems and skills that is amazing to watch
That approach looked super stressful Ryan! Looking forward to part 2 :D
In addition to being a professional, you are very skilled in commanding your plane. Good flights, the population you serve counts on you. Here from Brazil, follow my greetings.
Every flight an adventure! Great work!
You are a brave man to try flying in such weather conditions.
Your channel is awesome. The camera placement is splendid. The narration is compelling. I'll be subbing.
I have to say, I thoroughly enjoy your flight videos Sir... It's every bit as good as the NET FLEX series called, Ozark's. I get to relax and watch you live your life and fly where I would love to go someday! It's almost as good as being there! TY and stay safe!
Brilliant work mate 👌
Great video mate, exciting to watch
Favorite episode i've seen on your channel! Loved the contingency planning!
Absolutely great flying. The area is tricky due to terrain and weather. Be careful out there, beter to turn back, than to risk your life, the plane, the cargo. And great filming also!
Excellent stuff!!
I just came across this video and its also my first time watching your channel. I thoroughly enjoyed it and I just subscribed.
Love watching these. Like everyone says great editing but the professionalism is my favourite thing, staying ahead of the aircraft and situation at all times.
Thanks
I was born in goroka in 62 and remember my parents telling me how challenging it was to fly in png I remember flying with Ansett to Lae in one of there dc3s we hit some horrible turbulence and I remember watching the wings flexing like rubber I thought it was great my mother was praying 😂. Stay safe buddy thanks for sharing.
Thanks for sharing! It was fascinating to watch!
Ryan, great content and looks really challenging. Thanks for sharing!!
Love the channel. Inspiring and educational. And you communicate well. Thanks for all your work. In life and on this channel. 😊 Prayers and abundant blessings.
Thx
I love the waterfall one arrival to the dirt grass 4 approach to a cat 3 or LPV with special stol kit as thing flys so crazy slow I love it.. you had like 2.6 miles of runway left that was awesome you could have gotten current with 3 up and downs and still came to full stop ! So there’s always an approach you just need to build one in the box
Thank you❤😊
Hats off my friend. That is some challenging flying requiring good aeronautical decision making.
Let the folks take ground transportation to where you are. You can’t do the impossible.
Its an absolute pleasure to watch your content.. Thanks..
Love your vids. A 25,000 hour pilot, still flying.
Wow, I can't imagine 25000 hrs. A lifetime
Awesome Flight Ryan. Excellent Landing and great to see you again. Didn't see the continuation Link. Godspeed
It's coming out in a couple of days
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!💪🏻💪🏻
I'm watching you every day because I'm going to start flying on the Dash8, and I want to be as aware as possible about flying at low altitude and how to manage and recognize weather issues so thank you again!😂
Just been watching your video and now I see the real story I used to relate when I was an MAF rep in North Wales, UK. So often we learned how you had to be ready to divert to another strip because the weather had closed in. GBY.
That’s crazy! Great job.
This reminds me of a story. Our group was sitting on the strip at Kokoda waiting to take off for Port Moresby and one of our group, who was a pilot, was sitting in the copilot seat. Just before take off he asks the pilot "How short of a take off roll can one of these things do?" The pilot lights up in a huge grin and says "I'll show you". We only needed 1/3 of the strip at Kokoda to get airborne. It was a fun ride.
This is a particularly interesting video. Really interesting to see your decisions on where and when to land.
WOW! That was a nail biter. Amazing!
I’m always amazed at your constant high workload, even without filming yourself. At least making the videos helps you to hear your own logic. I hope it helps your decision making!
Wahnsinnig die Presidente Führungsstil ohne Lachen gibt.................! Vielen Dank allen Brüdern und Schwestern als Götterspeise denken ...
Die Kinders fallen in Spielzeuge..........!
Amazing, my heart was pounding.
You continue to impress me with your knowledge, skill and huge nards.
Glad to hear it
We used a fog knife and a lot of prayer in cloud layers in Central America in the early 70s. Great video...
Love the camera angles and shots.
Wonderful view...🤩
I'm 66 and I'm thinking about getting trained to fly. I kind of envy you because you are getting serious experience that most pilots will never get. You'd be able to handle issues a lot more rationally because of your constant varying flying conditions.
Absolutely incredible work!!
OMG, what an absolutely beautiful bird. I can't believe you actually get paid to pilot that. You have the ultimate dream job!
Everything you do is so professional. Everything!
Thx
Love the suspense! ❤❤ But I bet you had every base covered.
Now that's what I call an unforgiving approach! Rigorous planning or trust in luck that won't always be there. Really fine job of piloting.
Excellent channel, I'm hooked. 😂
WOW that was incredible and intense.
Wow. I enjoy watching your videos. Great explanations and excellent flying skills and techniques.
Thats prett scary,looking out and seeing nothing.dont think i could do that work.very stressfull.kudos to you .i enjoy all your trips.
Scary weather! Great video.
I have only just started watching your channel mate but I love how you video and the way you fly
Videos are really looking good, like the slow, contemplative start, and the pre-flight chat. Take care.
Lots go into a flight like this. Appreciate that he shows it.
Awesome video!
That landing had me on the edge of my seat!
awesome !!!!
I know you love flying, but, you got to REALLY love it in some of these situations.
Thanks for the ride. Enjoyed video
Well done.gratulations!
Good stuff Ryan. On the ground after so much deliberation. 2nd day. Sambari I think you said.
amazing, nerves of steel
I really like to follow along. Take care.
Che spettacolo, mi piace volare e vedere volare, ma quello che fai è sbalorditivo. Sei un grande pilota. (from Italy, neighbor Albenga, LIMG)
Thanks....
That's a bit of a gnarly approach to not much of a runway, eh, mate? well done.
Soo skilful and soo brave!!!
Nice flight, glad I found this channel.
Great judgement and strategy with the rain, clouds and mountains. It was a good decision to wait out the weather at Simbari instead of going on to Madang. Very challenging to get passengers out of the bush to make their other flights. Thanks for your service Ryan.
I agree with the prior comment.. your work is so well considered and presented!
Frank in Colorado
Great video. I landed there with FS2020, but there was no slippery strip, no clouds, etc.... I am jumping to your next video. Thanks so much !
