Live'in the Dream

Supper in Bethel after a long day, Mongolian beef takeout from the only restaurants still open at 10:45 pm. A maintenance issue kept the crew and the aircraft overnight in Bethel awaiting the arrival of a mechanic in the morning.

A Dreamer's Job

A dreamer’s job, being an airline pilot, flying around the globe and back again. Heck even if you never leave Alaska this job is a one-of-a-kind adventure, especially when you are flying a Douglas DC6. In 1953 the DC6 would whisk 95 people to Europe overnight and today it hauls cargo big and small to all parts of this great land. When you start your piloting career out as a Flight Engineer, an important member of the DC6 crew, you know you have built the foundation for the best stories in your library.
