Great video, thanks for sharing. I’m a retired off-airport pilot of 35 years. You guys are very professional and thoughtful in your evaluation and execution, good to see it. And out there enjoying what only a few of us get to enjoy. Kudos!
Dude and Dudette!!!! Where the hell ya'll been?? am I the one who's outta touch?? Great to see you both. I will always love the video of your night low ifr into Sitka...I think. Jon keeps saying..."stay in close to shore"..."turn left"....."more left turn"...You guys are the best aviaition Duo out there today. Always good fun.
This is so awesome! I’m not gonna lie. I would be slightly terrified, especially watching that takeoff on that hard pack that you guys landed on, watching that Cherokee takeoff towards that little Mesa. But awesome stuff!
So, it is a Cherokee 180. I didn't believe when its takeoff from that first riverside strip had it being described as a 140. I loved the Cherokee 180 when I flew them back in the 1970's.
Thank you guys that put a smile one my face as a jet pilot … this is way fun Very What is America about love it And you men you are the aviation inspiration
Atv’d to the Hidden Splendor air strip, then hiked up to the Hidden Splendor mine. I wondered what it would be like to fly into that canyon. Great adventure ❤
The music, the landscapes, and most importantly awesome people. You guys are truly blessed to have one another, Such a passionate and genuine group of pilots. Here's to hoping to we see more! Safe flying guys!
@desertdog185 That is possible, I lived there and worked for my Grandmother in the Trading Post, which is no longer in buisness.she was there for 45 years. My Grandfather had a 182 that he kept there and in Flagstaff. I've flown in theree in a Piper a few times but haven't been back there in several years.
Definitely not the same airplane with a bigger engine. Longer fuselage, extra window, completely different engine cowling and much bigger spinner. It’s a 180!
God Almighty said: * Know that the life of this world is only play and amusement, pomp and mutual boasting among you, and rivalry in respect of wealth and children, as the likeness of vegetation after rain, thereof the growth is pleasing to the tiller; afterwards it dries up and you see it turning yellow; then it becomes straw. But in the Hereafter (there is) a severe torment (for the disbelievers), and (there is) Forgiveness from Allah and (His) Good Pleasure (for the believers, good-doers), whereas the life of this world is only a deceiving enjoyment.*
@@FLY8MA nothing at all...as long as you love living in the middle of nowhere hoping you don't freeze to death run out of food or gt eaten by bears....who would even take that into consideration....??
Uh, for clarity, flyiny rural Utah is NOT backcountry. BLM flying yes, but you could have 4 Mercedez deluxe camper vans right next to your airstrip anytime besides the 4 summer months. The word "backcountry" is used in searches for wannabe bush pilots, but there is no bush in Utah. Only a vast pattern of 4 wheel drive roads.
soooper, and i thought jeeps and UTV's were the scourge of the backcoutry. then a bunch of you jackass' flew by. bet your planes are full of drones and every other thing to make my day in the desert a bit LOUDER. the entitled narcissits will always find a way to film themselves while giving NO Fks about anyone else. thanks for sharing here so we know who ruined our hike.
