What some people have to do to fly
#1
These guys are building flight time with the dream of one day becoming an airline pilot. Single engine time (not multiengine) unless you are Air force or Navy fighter pilot is a hard way to go when doing a job interview..

I thought this video was interesting about the conditions and the airstrips they are flying into. The Plautus Porter is a great aircraft for what they are doing.. Unfortunately with its single engine and the terrain they have to fly over everyone can kiss their butts goodbye if the engine fails..

The engine is a PT6 which is a great engine..

There is a part two to the video series if interested.
