Under Pressure - Ice Pilots NWT 203 - Go Xplorer

The curse of -40 hits Buffalo pilots Devan and Scott on a food mail flight up the Mackenzie Valley when a mysterious rise in oil pressure threatens to destroy one of the C-46’s engines. Rookie pilots Andrew and Graeme face the test they’ve been working toward for years - getting “checked out” as DC-3 co-pilots. And when Jynelle gets pulled back into running Buffalo’s cargo operations during her school exams, it’s a recipe for a meltdown.

18:12 Devan, I couldn't agree with you more XD.

The Link Trainer only trains for IFR procedures - it only has a basic panel. JR

nice

[@thomasmixson7064]

I'm sorry but having men walk around on icey wings to clear snow and ice is an unacceptable risk!! Get a bucket rig and deice....saving money while risking someone's life and limb is wrong

[@larrysproul9424]

I am very surprised no employees were hurt bad walking on the wings .

IDK, at the point that you have the guts to fly 80 year old tin in temperatures that freeze pee before it can reach the ground, walking on the wing probably doesn't feel like an OSHA violation... which is irrelevant, because they're in Canada's Northwest Territories -- the equivalent in that part of the world is some dude saying, "Buddy, don't do that, you'll die, eh," in an urgent but subdued voice.

They are not checked out for small single engine - they are multi rated before they can get a type rating on the DC-3 JR

What exactly did Jeremy say and or do at the point of getting laid off? I wish this was on the show - is it?

[@DWBurns]

Careful offering to die to stay in the plane. I fell off the wing of my Piper Arrow, I used my head to block my fall. I am not too far from dead. I said there is no way my own Arrow would kill me when I lived through so many company planes.
