Isolated from the rest of the world, the region of Llanos in Colombia’s Amazon is accessible mainly by plane. Villagers rely on pilots to deliver food and goods and spread manure and weedkiller. Here, pilots fly in conditions that would be unthinkable elsewhere, landing amongst animals and children. Joachim has already broken two planes flying in Llanos. The last time, he fell 70 meters after a swarm of bees engulfed his plane. The latest episode in the acclaimed ‘Most Dangerous Roads’ series, exploring the lengths people go to change their lives.

I am from Villavicencio and it seems to me a great tribute that this documentary makes to all those men and women aviators who have forged the aviation of the Llanos and Selvas of Colombia, especially from my city and its Vanguardia Airport (VVC / SKVV). Unfortunately today there are very few DC-3s in operation, mainly because insurance prices are very high and the country's aeronautical authority imposes standards that are almost impossible to comply with for this type of aircraft, which makes its operation economically unviable. But despite everything, in Villavo we still have the pleasure of listening to them and seeing them soar through the skies.

@@rogerweatherman8349 It's a simple case of Theseus' ship or grandfather's axe. Consider another long-living aircraft; the C-130B. You could still find them being used by third world countries and often being bought third hand or donated by the US and yet despite B-variant being produced in early 1960s, over the years they saw plenty of upgrades and refurbs that kept them flying over the years; old fuselage panels were replaced with new ones, old analog cockpit were replaced by digital, glass cockpit, the wings are replaced probably 3,4 times and even the engines and propeller were replaced with newer, more more efficient design. In the end of the day, while the tail number might be the same as the plane that was produced 60 years ago, when you think about it, it's a different plane altogether. Also military airplanes tend to survive longer than commercial airliners since commercial airlines operated different from military operators. it's not uncommon to hear an airliner being retired when a new version of said airliner could reduce operation cost by single digit percentile while military planes like B-52 and Tu-95 are planned to be operated well into their 100th years of operation even as the world move towards stealth aircraft design.

This was a GREAT documentary! Living here in the US, we take it for granted that our airlines are on time, the seats clean and well padded, and that the flight attendants will be bringing around the beverage cart at least a couple of times during the flight. And we assume that the planes themselves are hardly ever older than maybe 15 years. Flying over the Amazon rain forest in a airplane that was probably built during WWII, and that might be almost 80 years old now, is a concept that I can't wrap my head around. Looking at the engines with the cowlings removed, and all that rust and pitting on the exhaust manifold, makes me wonder what other parts of the airframe and engines are likewise corroded out in places that are hard to inspect? I have vast respect for these flight crews.

One of my relatives was a mechanic on B-36 bombers. He had to be on board for every flight, fixing and checking everything repeatedly. A huge aircraft with wings so thick he could walk inside them to check engines, etc.
