Thanks for sharing.

Lovely video!

We currently have a new series running on British TV.
Bush Pilots in Alaska...>>>

http://preview.discovery.com/tv-shows/f ... ld-alaska/

I must admit though...I never like the thought of spending any time in Northern climes (Canada/Alaska), with all is freezing cold ice and snow, wind chill, and inclement weather!
Every time I watch the series on my TV I have to pop on my overcoat, gloves, furry hat and boots, and scarf, and turn up my Central Heating!

Even watching the cold on the screen is uncomfortable!... ....!

A good series to watch...proving that you are well wrapped-up!

I am a sunny, Southern California, Sim Pilot.... ...!

Paul....I need Warmth and Comfort!.... ...!

Worth watching...thanks for posting the Link...

I HATE YOU!



Now I have to get more float planes, and more Alaska scenery.

I also want to leave my wife and become a bush pilot, and.....



Other than that, nice video. I watched it twice, thanks.

Very enjoyable

Tongass Fjords covers that area.

And always be sure to wear and display your Bush Pilot Wings proudly!





I know they can be hard to earn, but well worth the effort!



Enjoy all your flights, and watch out for bare patches...of ice of course!

You cant beat a bit of delving about in the Bush, Pat... ...!

...may occasionally get you into a spot of trouble, tho!..... ...!

Paul...my Bush exploration days are long over...trust me... ... ....!

P.S...Pat...that lower photo badge would be a good emblem on the petrol tank of Star, vee-twin Motorcycles!... ... ....!

Glad you have all enjoyed it, the scenery is just breathtaking, must confess I did talk with SWMBO about selling the house getting some lessons heading out to Alaska it was all going very well and then, well then I woke up ah well .

When Mother Earth is accelerating rapidly towards us, nose down, its just as well that we are able to wake up in Flight Sim Mode!... ...!

Works with me...fortunately!

Paul... ...!

Ketchikan is one of the best places to fly in the Backcountry, IRL as well as in FS.

There's tons of Scenery out there for both 9 and X, both Payware and Freeware. Tongass Fjords, Misty Moorings, ORBX... the list goes on.

When I first started simming with 2002, I loaded all of the Scenery for this area I could get and learned the ropes. When I switched over to 9, I took some of the 2002 Scenery and loaded it, too.

There's no GPS info, but they show up in the Sim, and I can navigate to them by memory.

Here's a couple more Backcountry vids fo ryour perusal...
