And took off from the curve in the creek! It's been 12 years since this video was uploaded; this footage was great, but I would have loved to see a camera out the windshield from the pilot's point of view.

Talented Pilot!. Only one and he was good! His name was Ray and worked for Alaska West Air in Nikiski, AK. He has since moved on!

Very nice shooting. Love the pokata-pokata of that 1000HP engine

Looks like the Kustatan River on the West Side of the Cook Inlet...

What does the pilot's "word bubble" hanging in the flight deck say?
