The Beaver is still one of the greatest airplanes ever. I have several thousand hours flying one in the Canadian bush.

When the Beaver was in design and the company surveyed bush pilots to list the specs for their dream bush plane, de Havilland, after analyzing the responses was said to have said; "What they want is a pick-up truck with wings"....so that's what he gave them.

Thank you so much! I'm really glad that you enjoyed this video. As you can see, I really have my heart with these amazing machines and I do wan't to spread the word about them. I'll try a bit more engaging editing, putting the specs on screen, as Im aware its easier to understand probably when you see it. Would love to hear your opinion when i'll implement it. Thanks so much.

The beaver chewed down enough trees to let them escape Alaska and get to Canada? 😁 Just joking. 🤣

The red plane at 9:17 was a DHC Otter, not a Beaver.

de Havilland Aircraft Canada Company was eventually bought out by Bombardier Canada Inc. (The inventor and manufacturer of the snowmobile, who also produced; business jets, buses, streetcars and light rail trains) and with the stroke of a pen, the new CEO killed the manufacture of the Beaver, believing that the money was in business jets.
