Wow, I just got done watching a brief show on bush pilots in Alaska on the history channel. Had some cool footage of them doing some insane landings
in the craziest weather conditions. Did anyone else see it? They had some pretty neat planes on there as well and it was hard to believe they are
flying some planes that were designed fifty years ago. I still think I will just stick with flying passengers on FS, but my respect for these guys
just went up a 100% after seeing and hearing more about what they do. Can't believe a certain pilot on the show had been a bush pilot for sixty years
(might have been sixty years old can't remember but he flew for many years.) and he only crashed once.
