Another great video! The Goroka scenery always makes me homesick. A couple of people asked about the facility at 16:40. That's the new Kainantu "K92" gold mine. Hopefully they aren't dumping cyanide into the Ramu River like Ok Tedi did. Someone mentioned the cultivated areas. As you come out of the Finisterres at around 36:05 you see the Gusap River. The first big cultivated area is the Gusap Palm oil plantation which is relatively new. Then a few miles down the Ramu River at 36:22 is Ramu Sugar, which has been there for decades.

[@ianbaillie8900]

As someone who flew into Goroka in 1987 the ANG plane was met by 100 or so people half of them in tribal dress. When I asked my supervisor why did they turn up she said 'they just came to see the plane'. There was also a fair amout of Cargo Cult going on at the time. Virgins were being sacrificed in the belief a plane would land full of goddies, a legacy of WW11 when the Yanks flew shitload of stuff in. In the highlands there were rascal gangs who'd lay tree trunks across roads to block traffic and hold people up. The climate there was the best in the world. That changed when I went to Lae where in was 33 degess at 9am and humidity 100%. What a country to fly in. Stay safe.

G’day Ryan. Been watching your videos off/on over the past 12 months. Really enjoyed them. Takes me back to my childhood days growing up in PNG in the 1950/60’s. Many of the villages (names) I remember however ‘ Pigeon’ seems to have changed significantly with much more English included. The villages haven’t changed much from my childhood memories. It’s great to see the capital investment going into png. Keep up the videos. Most impressed with your dedication and professionalism to flying. You are a credit to aviation with your approach.

Hey Ryan. Long time viewer and user of your flight checklist box. This is a total shot in the dark that you will even see this but I'm a pilot in Canada - currently working on my CPL and IFR (with intentions to get Multi-IFR, but that's neither here nor there). If I wanted to apply to come out and work with you, who might I contact? Whether you get this or not, I'll leave off saying I really appreciate your videos. I'm convinced that the way you thoroughly narrate your thought process makes me a better pilot -- its also good watching (maybe too good, as I often realize too late how much time has passed when I get sucked into one of your videos!). All my best. -- Tristan

[@PfizerRN_NavyReserveCaptain]

As a 25-year retired Navy Reserve Captain who worked in Flight Surgeon's Office on Safety Programs, I love the O2 nasal cannula attached by Andrew's headset. Here's a question. Does the Kodiak 100 have a Carbon Monoxide Detection System? If not, you should a digital aftermarket like Tocsin or Forensics low-level 9ppm. That's simply based on high humidity area, plus high temps in a turbo. Brings on rust quicker plus stress cracks in an exhaust heating/cooling scenario. We found this in T-6B Texan II in both NAS Pensacola and NAS Corpus Christi.

[@sthomas6369]

I have a lot of respect for military flight surgeons - my dad was one in one of the earliest flight surgeon classes in the Air Force back in the 1950's. However, I also have had experience with portable CO detectors in small airplanes, and how their use can be troublesome and not conducive to safety. Back in the early 2000's I got an AIM detector that was being touted at the time that would display CO down to 8ppm. I had a 1974 Cessna 177RG that was in good shape and well maintained, and I was using it to do Instrument training with the flight instructor I'd done my PPL with. We'd flown plenty of hours in my C177RG doing instrument training before I got the CO detector. However, the CFII basically panicked because the CO detector read something other than zero during the late approach to landing and just after touchdown (about 5 minutes). The peak during that time was about 65ppm just after touchdown. The worst thing though was that the detector would alarm at a low level, 8ppm and my instructor would "freak out" and I considered the alarm and her reaction during the critical landing phase of flight to be unsafe. My instructor refused to continue instrument training in my plane until something was done and I agreed because of her reaction (my instrument training ceased). I spent a fair amount of time researching and at the time found that the only FAA guidance was the 35ppm CO certification standard for small aircraft (that the CO level must be below 35ppm in all phases of flight - mind you my 1974 177RG was certified before that regulation was written, and it was acknowledged by Cessna early on that there was a temporary "exhaust in the cockpit" issue, which resulted in fitting a scoop at the tail to create more positive pressure in the cabin). I also learned from both Cardinal and Cessna owner's clubs that the readings I was getting were normal for the airplane. I also talked to a toxicologist that my wife knew through business about it. He happened to live in Denver and was familiar with the effects of CO at altitude. His reaction to the levels of CO during cruise for an extended duration was that it would never be of concern. He said that 8 ppm of CO or even considerably more could be endured indefinitely without detrimental effect even at altitude. His reaction to an exposure of 65 ppm of CO for a duration of 5 minutes or so was the same. He said the duration of exposure was so short that there was no hazard to health in the least. He further stated that people regularly, voluntarily expose themselves to CO for extended periods of time when they barbeque. Barbeques are notorious for poor combustion, leading to a fair amount of CO. Flipping burgers will easily expose a person to high, meaning well in excess of 100 ppm, levels of CO! During takeoff, cruise, and early stages of approach, the levels were under the 8ppm detection threshold. Even though I had information that there was nothing unusual about the readings, and because I'm an aerospace engineer with a determination to figure things out, along with the instructor and an A&P friend (also an aircraft engineer), we did a bunch of testing to determine exactly what conditions caused the CO level to rise. I found that extending the flaps to 20 during approach seemed to be most highly correlated with the CO number rising (the level would rise to about 30ppm within about 30 seconds of flaps 20). During this entire sequence, I had numerous things checked and maintained that could have contributed to a higher CO level, like all the exhaust pipes, heater boxes, heater plenums, firewall pass throughs, landing gear wells sealed, we made sure all parts were present and to Cessna spec, etc. etc. My A&P and I also sealed up various different areas with access panels and interior panels with no effect. After determining that flaps 20 seemed to correlate with the highest rise in CO reading, we noted on the ground that there was a triangular shaped open passageway through the aft wing root, perpendicular to the wing root fairing, that became exposed at flaps 20 and higher, and we could see that there was a direct passageway into the cabin from there (although not visible from inside due to the headliner). We poured over the Cessna manuals, and inspected other Cardinals we knew of, and this configuration was just the way the 177's were built. We blocked off that passage with aluminum tape and went flying and voila, the highest levels of CO in the cabin in that approach and landing phase were below 20ppm, consistently. In all other phases of taxi, takeoff, cruise, and early approach, it remained below 8ppm. Further, we determined that only the LEFT wing root opening needed to be sealed, the mirrored space on the right had no effect, sealed or not. The exhaust stack exits the cowl on the port side, and we reasoned that the rotating air from the prop was pulling the exhaust in a clockwise direction, facing forward (so to the port), and up under the wing, where it could encounter the opening in the wing root when the flaps were extended to 20 and beyond. I reported my findings back to the Cardinal and Cessna owner's groups as others had reported similar issues when these detectors became available. One thing I did in the midst of all this was drive through downtown Los Angeles (part of my commute at the time) with the CO detector in my car and the windows closed. Sitting in traffic, the detector would alarm and register CO at 80-100ppm, levels well above the worst in my airplane! And depending on traffic that exposure could be longer than the 5 minutes from flaps 20 to landing and rollout. However, in this entire time, my CFII got even more scared, after helping with the initial flight testing, and we decided to part ways. I later found another instructor and finished my IFR training and got my rating. I'm not denying the serious potential for danger and harm from sustained high levels of CO in aircraft cabins. However, the detector can lead people who are unqualified and uninformed about the levels and the duration of exposure and the potential for danger, overreacting due to viewing the irrelevant readings. During that time, I sought guidance from the FAA, AOPA, the toxicologist I interviewed, and others, and wasn't able to find solid pilot guidance like a time vs concentration (ppm) graph, or similar at different altitudes. That would be useful to make pilots and passengers more knowledgeable about the risks of CO in flight. It's too simple to think "anything above 0ppm is dangerous" but that's simply not practical when you consider that things like gas stoves, barbeques, traffic, etc. that are part of normal life can all produce conditions worse than a small airplane. I can't speak to circumstances with pressurized airplanes or oxygen systems (although I had a self contained system in my airplane for high altitude flight) I can see where issues of CO contamination might be made worse with such systems.

Hi Ryan - awesome as always! I have a question in relation to that landing, as a beginner pilot. You pulled power and raised flaps on the 1% downslope RWY, knowing that would reduce lift over 7 seconds and ensure you do touch down. Do you do this becuase at these RWY's you are committed to land at this point with no go around? If you did have a go around option from this point I assume you would leave flaps out? Love your channel thank you so much. .

[@MissionaryBushPilot]

about 3/4 of a mile from the runway I am committed to land at this location. So NO MATTER WHAT, I HAVE to land once I go past my committed area. I put my flaps up on landing because with the flaps, the plane wants to float further down the runway, loosing valuable braking area.

[@MissionaryBushPilot]

that's it for fixed wing at the moment

The little economist in me wonders if the coffee farmers would have preferred you just give them the value in local currency of the 10-20 min. of fuel you had to burn, instead of burning the fuel and being able to load a few extra sacks of coffee on board.

[@bens4446]

Ah no, much better to burn the fuel. It seems PNG coffee retails at about $4-9/lb., whereas Jet 1A is roughly USD $0.36/lb. (according to the internet).

What temperature is "really cold" in PNG?

[@MissionaryBushPilot]

really cold is 50° F

[@jamesleem.d.7442]

The verbal crutch "like" was used 48 times during the chatting between the two pilots. Very distracting element in an otherwise terrific video. Plane is a super nice multimillion dollar machine. Getting caught in IMC there apparently a very big deal. Praise the lard.
