AVIONICS FAILURE IN FLIGHT! | Bush Pilot Flight Vlog

[@joedavis7258]

Super video! I applauded for $5.00 👏👏

[@MissionaryBushPilot]

Yay! Thank you!

[@kevinreed8041]

I truly enjoy these flights. Have a hyperactive 4 year old he calms down when we watch your flights. Thank you for sharing!

[@MissionaryBushPilot]

Great to hear!

[@Patat0four]

I'm an adult with hyoeractivity and it helps me cool down. My pressure goes from 140/100 to 125/80 2 minutes after take-off.

[@matthewjob9424]

Do you ever miss centerline on landing? Well done again

[@lukeorlando4814]

The runway having a centerline must be a nice treat. Wouldn’t want to -miss- an opportunity like that!

[@kennethperian4370]

Great job Ryan again and have a good one , nice video see ya next time see ya bye.

[@iang.8601]

Nice flight,I know the Hagen area well,I did my flight training and first solo there in C172. All our flying was VFR in those days. Loved it.

[@bobcardone7437]

Flew this in MSFS 2020 in the Kodiak, roundtrip, Nice flight. The weather was a bit dicey approaching AYMH..

[@jameswikstrom4174]

Really enjoy the flights that we are able to ride along. You are a truly amazing individual! You have total command of the aircraft at all times during the flight. I would definitely call you the consummate professional. You are totally suited to your chosen profession! Thanks for sharing your experiences with the viewers!

[@nigelchristensen7001]

I have a friend who works with MAF so nice to see what is involved in these mission flights.

[@majestic51061]

Hello Ryan, from the perspective of an A330 Captain you to be commended and doing an incredible job. Having the ability to tune a nav or com channel with a mode failure is highly important, know how many clicks of the comm dial to select a given frequency is a must should you have a map display failure- your comms and navs are still selectable. Great Job! Capt Mark A330

[@michaelraderman6578]

I figured out !! All your content is computer generated animation. You had me fooled all this time I thought it was real. Lol You are amazing !! Inspiring and as REAL AS IT GETS !! 🙏 thank you

[@heisqmedia]

It is real.

[@mrsaskriders]

I watch Steveokinevo TBM pilot channel. he just tried out a TBM 940 which has a single button land switch and the plane will land at an airport completely on its own. Now there's even a backup if the pilot goes down. Unreal technology.

[@CapFreddy]

Another great video. We flew 727 over the Amazon Forrest with no glass whatsoever, juts a gps that would show course and distance to a point and the standard HSI RMI. And that was 2001/2004 before VARIG went bankrupt and I quit aviation as a job. Anyway, today we have a lot of resources in the cockpit, but flying should follow all the rules that kept pilots alive since the beginning of flight history, like you did.

[@MissionaryBushPilot]

Flying here in PNG back in 2001 would have been a LOT different. It would have added a lot more stress and fatigue to the day, that's for sure.

[@jonathanwalegir7083]

Nice...nosewheel on white line. good job

[@GOTOHOBBIES]

Hello Ryan, I find your videos very interesting as a person that fears flying in a aircraft. You pilots do a fantastic job and your skills are amazing, well done to all you pilots. I used to drive hgv trucks for a job and its very stressful and too many idiots thinking they can drive, but flying a plane looks like better option. Your videos help me to understand what it takes to fly a plane and I looking forward to watching all your lovely videos. Many thanks David

[@deanalm5492]

CPL from England, really enjoying what I’m seeing, got it on a string young man, excellent..

[@richardbloomhypnotherapy2078]

the quality of the video is great like being there. Never been in a small plane like this . Fantastic, love the detail and description..

ITT - Interstage Turbine Temperature - the temp between the high pressure and low pressure stages of the turbine

[@TheNapalmFTW]

Thanks for the upload! I love the commentary as you're flying and the scenery. The Kodiak looks like a neat a/c.

[@MissionaryBushPilot]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@dannyb7371]

I find when something stops working if you hit it a couple of times that works a treat!

[@MissionaryBushPilot]

Taking the Jeremy Clarkson method eh? 😉

[@blackberrygnu9385]

Hello Missionary , thanks for the video again , great flight as usual , I did allot of Bush flying in Suriname , also in the 208 , bust mostly in the C 206 , ( in the right seat :P ) always a great adventure flying in , but your mission is no joke, these fields are not to play with .. so great blessings for your work there for the people that are in need..Have a nice weekend, cap.

Thanks for the flight and your commentary on backup procedures. Hope you got that display fixed!

[@Hopeless_and_Forlorn]

In the 1950s and 60s Denver-based Frontier Airlines flew DC-3s on scheduled passenger flights under Part 121. Many routes in Rocky Mountain states took them through mountain passes in IMC using only ADF and dead reckoning for navigation. In areas without sufficient air route markers, Frontier ground radio personnel installed towers with NDB H-markers. The airplanes did have VOR/ILS receivers, but no DME, no radio altimeters, no radar, no flight directors and no autopilots. Of course, RNAV, GPS, GPWS, TCAS, and TAWS were not even dreamed of at the time. Beginning in 1965 I was a mechanic for another regional carrier which also operated similarly-equipped DC-3s. I was on jump seat one winter day when Captain Hugh Barron, can't remember the F/O's name, flew an ILS approach into Dallas Love Field. We broke out at what must have been near minimums for a Category 1 approach, right on the beam. Although I was ignorant of avionics and instrument flying at the time, I knew enough to watch the crossed pointers, and to congratulate the pilot on the perfect landing when we rolled up to the gate. As for Frontier, one of their DC-3s once left several feet of wing on a cloud-covered mountain in Arizona, but the plane landed safely, and Frontier closed its doors in 1986 with an unblemished safety record. Thank you for the look at modern-day flying.

[@Hopeless_and_Forlorn]

@AwakeAmericanow. I share your concern. The Asiana Airlines B777 crash at SFO is proof to me that there are senior pilots in the airline industry who cannot safely fly a visual approach to a long runway in CAVU conditions. In other words, they would not be allowed to solo if they were to start over as student pilots.

[@mikewebb111]

Another great flight ..thank you. I currently fly with the G1000 ( but without TAWS). Its made life easier once you have the hang of it. I'm using AvPlan and find that very good but I'm only flying within Australia.

[@MissionaryBushPilot]

yes, once you get comfortable with the G1000, it is great

[@thedogman14]

Stumbled upon your vids. I was born in Rabaul and grew up in Madang. Flew out of Madang for some time. I was taught to fly by Father Joe (Missionary pilot) and Bobby Gibbs...you may have heard of him? I sat on their laps at about the age of 8 or so. Went and did my flight training in Australia and always found humour when the instructors said, "This airstrip is a little difficult!" I would just inwardly grin a bit as I recalled Bundi, Wau or Bulolo. Flew C175, C182, C206, C336, Wren, DC3 and a couple of others. Our GPS in those days was above my ears. I stilll have my languages. I'd love to have a go in your bus...it would be fun. Keep up the good work. If only your viewers would be able to smell the tropics...then they'd know what it's really like. Say G'day to Madang as you fly over one day. The most beautiful town in New Guinea (Niu Gini)

[@CaptinSean]

Absolutely love these video's

[@ianjones1719]

have been watching your video for a while now and was wondering if you ever got to fly into Mt Hagen.....many many years ago an Uncle & Aunt of mine spent several years working in Mt Hagen, I think they ran the post office there but Not real sure on that..... when ever they came home for Holidays we would get lots of stories about the going son in Mt Hagen.....

[@Mike7478F]

Interstage Turbine Temperature (ITT) is the temperature of the exhaust gases between the high pressure and the low pressure turbines. The gas temperature is measured by a number of thermocouples mounted in the exhaust stream and is presented on a flight deck gauge in either degrees Fahrenheit or degrees Celcius.

[@jakobjarl7113]

I do enjoy your explanations of procedures and your planning as the flight progresses.

[@steve-o5600]

Super glad to discover this channel. Have read a few books about New Guinea/World War II and it's great to see this territory from the air, not to mention the most thorough and detailed descriptions of what's going on in the cockpit and with the flying of any channel I've found so far. Just awesome.

[@curtisbressler]

Absolutely love these vids. Found you the other day and seriously wish I did what you do. Thanks!!

[@tonnymondo3497]

Thankyou for promoting my beautiful country. 🙂

[@Biene2755]

Every time good to have redundant systems even flying as a bush pilot. Well done!

[@MissionaryBushPilot]

thanks

[@billgoldenthal8327]

Another nice video, ty! I find the purple boxes, “highway in the sky,” useful. Especially if flying an IFR vectors to final approach as the turn to capture the localizer is not annunciated on the PFD. So the SVT and FD provide useful inputs if you’re doing that manually. Just my opinion. :)

[@can5projects563]

Thank you for your awesome videos it's like I'm sitting right there. love your videos and the professional way you do things in the cockpit

[@michaelfield3024]

Every video is a lesson... brilliant

[@porkorosso7885]

Thanks for sharing. Remember your visual scans even if there is little traffic. Btw I had to send both my Dynon MFD screens back to manufacturer for new hard drives.

[@harpoon_bakery162]

great video. that country you are flying in is just spectacular. the training you are getting in this country couldn't be more beautiful. great views while you aspire eventually to other locations.

[@jjcale539]

As usual another great video...thanks

[@MissionaryBushPilot]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@paulojorgegoncalvescorreia7834]

Another great video. Thanks for sharing it. If machines sometimes fail, humans must not !!!

[@MissionaryBushPilot]

Very true!

[@dbvetter7485]

When my parents were with NTM in the 70’s Mt. Hagen was a grass strip! Funny hearing English instead of pidgin English.

[@MissionaryBushPilot]

Wow that's crazy it was a grass strip back then. How things have changed!

[@rachelwheeler309]

When did it become paved? I was born in PNG in the mid-70s but I only remember it paved. So I'm guessing it was some time in the late 70s or early 80s.

[@rosscasey9477]

I grew up in PNG. My father was with Post & Telegraphs & was posted to Mt Hagen from Rabaul in 1964. At that time the strip in Hagen was actually gravel from memory however was situated right in the middle of the town then. Can't quite remember when Kagamuga opened however I was there at the opening. Dad suffered heart problems & was transferred to Moresby about 1969 & the new airport had only recently opened. Most of the flights I was on going to & from boarding school in Australia was out of the old strip in DC-3's. Fond memories of when we were there. BTW. Just recently found your videos Ryan & really enjoying them. Did quite a bit of flying around when I was up there & this brings back some great memories.

[@Singleguyandhisdogcooking]

I have never binge-watch a KZbin channel, until now! Thanks for all the great content. I was born in Costa Rica and love the similar landscape of Papua New Guinea. I was there back in 2011 while visiting Australia. Love the peoples of the region. Keep the videos going, I'm sure Netflix, will soon make this into a Back country flying. Thanks again!

[@MissionaryBushPilot]

Thanks for watching!

Omg I'm actually figuring out what your doing for nav !! Love it thanks missionary pilot

[@kenstokes7511]

Hi Hey great to find your account and flights. I lived in PNG for 17 year from early 1978 to late 1993. Lived in Mt Hagen for 4 years where I was Finance Manager for the tea and coffee estates. Also lived in Port Moresby twice and Rabaul as well. Absolutely loved it till the volcano blew up in Rabaul and ruined my lifestyle. Have watved a couple of your flights so far but will keep looking them up. I'm in NZ where I was born. Did a lot od flying around PNG when I became the GM of Agriculture and Finance for W R Carpenters. Cheers Ken

[@relaxingnature2617]

Here In British Columbia there is roads everywhere ..real wilderness but plenty of roads ..logging pays for the roads ..if New Guinea logged more they could have more roads too and not have to rely on planes so much

[@sandybanjo]

That was a test of skill and good job! Gotta know what's available to ya, and you did! Follow the checklist, but memorize the Emergency checklist (good Job!). then, complete the checklist after execution of the Memory items (if time and space allow. I can share one of those horror stories with the "we ain't gonna do that!. We're landing"). Aviate, communicate navigate.

[@MissionaryBushPilot]

You are right Sandy, sometimes, it's best just to land, or not even take off. I've had to not take off before due to problems with the plane, and even aborted takeoffs.

[@sandybanjo]

@@MissionaryBushPilot Well, I feel in my spirit a bond with you.....for two reasons....a fellow aviator who is true to his Mission, and myself.....a has been who remains true to that task. I'll contact you through your email but I truly wish to share with you......I sense we have So Much to discuss!!!!!!

[@smartycummins2500]

Was flying a Phenom 100 at FL400 and had all three G1000 screens go dark on us. If you ever have the problem again, remember that you can use a flash light and shine it on the screen. You’ll be able to see it, it’s just the back lighting that goes away

[@MissionaryBushPilot]

good tip and good to know.

[@smartycummins2500]

Missionary Bush Pilot you’ll still see everything that is there, speed tape and all! It’s simply the back lighting going away (well, it could be. It’s happened twice to me in the Phenom and it came down to a bad reo-stat switch)

[@3204clivesinclair]

I'll be flying using the G1000 in the next two weeks. You were pretty cool handling the issue! Now I know what happens when you hit the reversionary mode! Your flying is awesome and it is never boring!!!! Lots of info on how to fly in the bush, mountains, even with failing avionics:)

[@RobRoyAus]

Hi Ryan. Excited to see this flight - at 25:50 you flew right past Paglum Adventist school where I lived as a 5yo lad in 1969/70. (White buildings just off to the right of your track - one of them was the house I lived in:) Parents ran what was a boarding primary school in those days. Wish I could visit...

[@MissionaryBushPilot]

Awesome that its still there

[@williegillie5712]

ITT inter turbine temperature. Nice smooth landing ya greased it again. I’m starting to enjoy watching your vlogs. Looking forward to your next one. Can hardly wait to see more of your bush landings.

[@-Ncrypt]

Interstage* turbine temp, it's the temp of the air moving from the high pressure portion of the turbine to the low pressure portion. I've heard the most accurate temp reading would be from the entry point into the high pressure turbine, but putting sensors there would dramatically decrease their lifespan. Or so they say!

[@gerardopizarro2453]

Ryan, this kind of videos with full of maps to explain your route are amazing

[@ianw3294]

Great flight Ryan. Is the windjammer hotel still on the beach at Wewak?. I remember meeting Michael Somare there. I also remember all the war relics on the beaches there.

[@daviator4720]

I think it is still there...

Thank you for all the great videos. very happy to that i have found your channel.

[@MissionaryBushPilot]

Welcome!

[@Merkabahman]

Aren´t you allowed to fly VFR? I ask this question, because I learned flying in the 70s on C152 and C172, and we only had a physical map, a compass and a stop-clock, nothing else. Our limitations where 10,000 ft above msl, not above due to IFR traffic. Autopilot? we didn´t had that luxury equipment. FMS? Nope! Only whiskey compass, map and stop-clock... but I always arrived and landed safely wherever I wanted to go, except of full IFR-conditions. Today I´m retired, and avionics have made tremendous progress meanwhile. However, I wish you many happy landings, I really enjoy your videos. Many greetings from Wuppertal, Germany, yours Wolfgang :-)))))

[@johnharrell5654]

As usual, I enjoyed going along with you on this flight. May I suggest that up at 11,000 ft using a little O2 might help with those occasional brain farts.

[@MissionaryBushPilot]

yeah, it does. I"m not at 11000 for long though.

Nice one! Just wondering why your hand signals @18:05 about RWY 30 or 12 were pointing the exact opposite?

[@MissionaryBushPilot]

I was flying on a heading of 150 and I pointed behind me for RW 30 which is correct. I landed on RW 12 which was why the controller set me up for a straight in on RW 12

I have before, just not filmed them. The mission politics of flying our own kids is a sore spot for us pilots. Some, not all, want to charge us to bring our own kids on a flight even if it's not displacing any weight, kind of annoying to say the least.
