  • These flights took place in the Okbab valley in the Star Mountains, Papua, Indonesia. All the strips have very friendly people. The runways are steep but long. The scenery is breathtaking... Waterfalls and rivers sculp the valleys to perfection, proof that Nature itself is the best artist.

    Pilatus Porter best aeroplane ever! Shortest take-off and landings ever and climbs like a fart out of a bath! Take 8 skydivers and I have done many, many jumps out of them.
    Salute!

    The Bush Pilot life is some real flying. I would like to see more interaction with the villagers. It is part of the human condition not seen in a commercial aviation experience.

    You might want to consider watching this video during the entire touchdown at around 7min,30seconds. watch for the left corner of the windshield. It looks like it will fall out soon. Check for stress cracks in the bulkhead where the landing gear attaches, but look inside at the bulkhead.
