SHORT FLIGHTS in West Papua Flying The Mighty Pilatus Porter

[@MultiCutaway]

Pilatus Porter best aeroplane ever! Shortest take-off and landings ever and climbs like a fart out of a bath! Take 8 skydivers and I have done many, many jumps out of them. Salute!

[@tdceylon]

You've ventured me in to the unknown. Beautiful. You are a super pilot too. Congratulations

[@APilotsHome]

Thanks so much for you kind message! 😁

[@artgreen6915]

A very unique flight: short, straight, due to the angled destination you can see onto the arrival runway before you've departed!

[@bobboberson2024]

The Bush Pilot life is some real flying. I would like to see more interaction with the villagers. It is part of the human condition not seen in a commercial aviation experience.

[@m.p.472]

In commercial experience usually do not need to clean the cargo space after pigs in plastic bag :-) He has the same beige cargo pants I used to fly on weekends.. I still have them :-)

[@APilotsHome]

Will definitely try add more interaction on my next vids. Thanks for the commet Bob!

[@APilotsHome]

@@m.p.472 haha you know it right... worse things happen and only at the end of the day the cabin gets cleaned properly 😁 Where do you fly?

[@soluckyme910]

Please come to Papua Indonesia, jungle or forest beauty view👍 and people Papua very hamble.

[@bobboberson2024]

@@soluckyme910 Sounds like an adventure!

[@0nurbis]

Dont ask me why, but i think this is one of the greatest video i have seen this year on youtube... And im not even an aviation fanboi.

[@TimHarris2]

Brilliant video, and great flying, thanks for sharing!

[@debbiemaengkom8759]

Thank you to all the foreigner pilots they like to fly inside papua. GOD bless and guide all of you

[@APilotsHome]

God bless you too. Thank you!

The almost perfect bird to do this job. It's always a pleasure to see the PC6 in such environment with pilots who know.

[@asvinichannel7581]

Terima kasih telah melayani papua( Indonesian language) Thank you very much for service Papua island Indonesia 👍

[@jafarinha]

O PC5 é um Land Rover com hélice, vai a todo o lado. Incrível o short takeoff naquela últimpa pista. Grande abraço.

[@HecSalms]

I would like to see the whole flight without speed increment, to feel all the sensations and to contemplate all the details, especially the final approach to the runway. Anyway, thank you for sharing this amazing experience, great video. I want to see more.

[@soluckyme910]

Please come to Papua Indonesia, mountain, forest or jungle beauty view👍 and people Papua Indonesia is humble. You don,t meet like this in Singapore or Malaysia. Only in Papua Indonesia nice 👍

[@alreaud]

Phenomenal flying skills and knockers of titanium evidenced here!

[@DiCola119]

That ground roll on takeoff is insane!

[@gordocooper5324]

Awesome, real flying 👍

From mountain-top butter-landing to another mountain-top butter-landing. Terima kasih Pak atas jasanya.

[@APilotsHome]

Please do! Papua is awaiting for you 😁🙏

[@budijanaabushofia4062]

I've been to Oksibil-Okbibab (Abmisibil)-Borme-and Aboy in 2007. it was a very-very exciting journey, but stressful as it flies between mountains and valleys and grass pads between mountain gaps and ravines

[@Ojan-r7f]

Terima kasi udah melayani masarakat Papua tanpa misi masarakat tak ada hubungan keluar kota lain thx AMA Maf

Interesting flights, interesting life😊👍

[@devidattagiri5000]

The heavenly natural scenic beauty compels me to watch these videos

[@dtsh4451]

This is literally flying in heaven, super flying skills! I am surprised locals build so many runways on the mountain top!

[@jonnie2bad]

it's quite literally the only way they can connect with the outside world. Some of the strips have taken decades for them to complete.

[@jetbakchannel]

Terimakasih mas Andri,semoga senang di Papua dan sehat selalu

[@sabeillard]

Great video, man! Congrats from Portugal! 👍🙂🇵🇹

[@madelinescafe8573]

Awesome flying...I'm a pilot in the states...I'd love to fly with you...that looks exciting 😁

Indah sekali indonesia ku

[@paulofavero6021]

Um sonho em ser piloto, e um sonho maior ainda em poder ajudar tantas pessoas assim ... Parabéns!!!!

[@rickgill1523]

Reminds me of my time flying the PC6 (piston) 50 years ago in the mountains of Papua New Guinea, not far from where these videos were taken - no electronics, basic instruments.

[@andrexpratama]

God bless u capt. papua indah sekali...

[@munirsab8325]

Amazing flight.

[@kohalakid1201]

Excellent! The PC6 is a hotrod. Your flights are MAXIMO GONZO 👍🏼

Very Nice Job. 2 thumbs up.

[@Sandsculptor]

In 1969 I was serving in a US Army Aviation unit at the Nha Trang Airbase. The Air America unit was a "stones throw" from our unit and they flew in a few of these Porter PC6's. The AA also had a fair share of C-46s and C-47s. Thanks for sharing this video.

[@APilotsHome]

Those must have been some amazing times! Thank you for sharing also. Keep well.

[@robertoaxelciarelli424]

interessante! Brevi voli ma indispensabili! Quando uno sale su un aereo ha sempre l' idea di rimanerci parecchie ore e fare lunghi traggitti! Qui si è delle vere Aquile!

[@eugeniohoyos6504]

Excelente servicio aereo, pilotoDios te bendiga. Saludos desde santa cruz, Bolivia.

[@danielepatane3841]

Congrat for your flight skills. Even though the pc6 is made for this kind of job, you man got some guts to land and take off in slopes like these!!!!

[@shable1436]

Those slope landings are lit

Hello from Russia, Saint-Petersburg!

wow what a stressful flight for us spectators but it seems normal for the experts, good work mate 👍👍👍🙏

[@VandroizCh]

warm regards bro from manado city 👋👍🙏

[@ridunonu6720]

Real Pilot.....good job

[@mruniverse5704]

May i just sit next to you in every flight? I just sit and sometimes helping if needed) that’s so satisfying !

[@billcampbell7397]

You might want to consider watching this video during the entire touchdown at around 7min,30seconds. watch for the left corner of the windshield. It looks like it will fall out soon. Check for stress cracks in the bulkhead where the landing gear attaches, but look inside at the bulkhead.

[@APilotsHome]

Hi Bill. Thanks for your message. Do you have any experience with Pilatus Porter? All the porters I fly they all have some movement on the windshield. This one specially. Thanks again!

[@Tamilan_wood_work4362]

Very good driving experience

[@lupiphoto]

Such a beautiful place

[@wiltonsilveiratecnico4158]

Esse avião é uma mula com asas! Sensacional o trabalho!

[@pilotina65]

Good! These are real flights.

[@nicke.3536]

One of few nicest airplanes, as Cessna 337, Caravan and some others.

[@dgibbsfl]

Interesting to watch.....so remote. Why do you wear your sunglasses on a cloudy day? Where do you go at the end of your work day, where do you live?

[@APilotsHome]

Thanks for your comment! There is still a lot of glare in the cockpit from some of the clouds. With polarised glasses (though not ideal for flat screens) it also takes some of the reflections on the windscreen and it enhances contrast when you're flying in a cloudy day.

[@dgibbsfl]

@@APilotsHome Thanks for your reply. It is really something to see the contrast between a modern day professional service that you provide and the mountainous (and beautiful) existence of the people in that remote region. The job you have is quite something. That type of flying is pure form to say the least. I think about weather and so many other factors that you have to deal with and it makes that type of flying even more something. The remote nature of it all is stunning. Do you get to take a break from the remoteness and have a cold beverage and relax somewhere sometimes? I would think that after a while you would need a break just to recharge and stay in touch with civilization.

[@adhoc9647]

Enjoyed seeing the unusual environment and flying experience. Very curious if flying in these tropical mountains is "off-limits" during monsoon season, and, if so, exactly what factors play the critical roles.

[@MichaelKingsfordGray]

Why do you cower behind a fake name?

[@billcampbell7397]

No I have no personal experience with the Porter, but if you think its OK to fly, I'm sure you have brought it to the mechanics attention and it would have been inspected already. Thanks for your videos, have a great day.

[@edsonnogueira969]

Muito legal seu vôo, parabéns

[@kapangmitkong698]

Love your video man😮

[@donidaniello21]

I tought u said vamos before starting the engine lol, but actually its 'awas' meaning caution right

[@koreanature]

Wow, that's a great video. I will always cheer for you in Korea I'm looking forward to a great video. Have a nice day.

[@Jaimito1980]

Very Nice Bro. Saludos desde Cusco 🇵🇪🙋🏻‍♂️.

[@JEEVITHAM789]

You're the heero👍🏻👍🏻

[@dip-tree]

A little bit less of background music may give a better feel for the flights. Wonderful footage and showcasing of rural life in Papua's mountain communities.
