Spring Time Flying

For Hire

Up Hill

It's all up hill from here!  Waiting to get unloaded while at a stop on the West Coast of Alaska.  Not much out here this time of year but snow.

Above 10,000 Feet

The DC6’s that we fly are now unpressurised and if we fly above 10,000 feet for any length of time over 30 minutes we have to be on oxygen. Nice cosmonaut mask wouldn’t you say?

Winter Flying

Not all days out flying are clear blue skies and sunshine especially when you fly around Alaska in the winter time. At four o’clock in the afternoon it can be pitch black, and during a stop in Fort Yukon the weight and balance must be completed with the assistance of the headlamp.
