Chuck stirs the pot - Ice Pilots NWT S04E04 - Go Xplorer

After taking command of an intense airlift, and dealing with the ugliest Electra load he’s ever seen, Scott takes a scary fall on the icy tarmac. City girl Christine moves to Yellowknife to give the unglamorous rampie life a shot, firebrand mechanic Chuck returns to the Buffalo hangar and immediately stirs the pot, while Joe helps out an old friend, “Ice Road Trucker” Alex Debogorski.

I like how Jeff Schroeder and the C46 stepped up

...dont know if I could stand such a low temperature! 🥶 ..Im from the tropics! lol

[@mikeabc5355]

So pilot at Buffalo is 10% pilot and 90% manual laborer, hope the pay is really good.

[@CrazyForCooCooPuffs]

you get paid on flight hours, young pilots are desperate.

[@Salesman263]

Chuck rocks.

[@LB6QJ]

he does at 23:06

[@eyespy1415]

Great to see Alex on here.. Pilots are only glorified truckers..

[@bmac7690]

Christine P. is a babe!

[@Greggg57]

So, just what is the pay scale for first officers at buffalo?

[@johnnunn8688]

I googled it a while back but can’t remember, sorry.

[@jonb2139]

@Greggg57 @johnnunn8688 Taken from an AV Canada post "Pilot in waiting pay: 36K annually FO pay: 36K + mileage Mileage: DC-3, King Air and DHC-6: First year 15 cents/mile; Second year 25 cents /mile C-46: First year 17 cents/ mile; Second year 25 cents/ mile Crew housing provided at Hay River base and Yellowknife. For Yellowknife, you will eventually have to look for your own housing."

You would start the car first before digging snow, Shirley?

Crazy much? Hygienists make good money!

[@Greggg57]

Poor chuck. Had to come groveling back. No more pride. Probably running out of unemployment checks.

[@larrysproul9424]

Thats what I thought when he reappeared looking for his old job back .

[@zoidberg444]

Buffalo is Chucks guilty pleasure. He has a love/hate relationship with the place. If he really wanted to he could probably get in with a decent company as he is a clever guy but my guess is he gets a fair bit of latitude at Buffalo and probably is one of the only people there who can tell Joe to F off when he starts ranting and raving.

[@johnnunn8688]

If Scott is the Capt, why’s he in the right seat?

[@MachTuck]

The F/O might be getting trained, right seat or left, the captain is still the captain

[@jamesstephenpeyton3305]

Same reason flight instructors use the right seat. The captain can choose his position in the cockpit.

[@B1900pilot]

This show was a joke…

[@matthewellis7284]

The manager has the voice of Kermit

[@Salesman263]

So sick of Poveys constant whining and complaining
