I am in college to get my commercial pilot license and this is the exact job I am striving for. Thank you so much for showing us what it's like.

I'm glad you enjoyed it! It makes me happy to know there are still pilots who don't want to just go straight to the airlines. Good luck with getting your ratings and hopefully we'll see you out here someday!

@@mapsedge exactly! I don't even really want to go to the airlines that bad. I love adrenaline stuff like this. How did you get into this job and get hired if you don't mind me asking?

@Ricky Bobby I hate to sound cliché but it really was right place at the right time. However, my resume was properly padded with cfi experience, a little Alaska time, and some time in a caravan. Basically I would recommend looking at your dream job, see the requirements and start working on checking off boxes. You'll learn a lot along the way and be a better pilot for it. Good luck wherever you end up!

Waw.... it was remembered my dad 1970, he is a pilot and flight attendant as well as mechanic with cessna 182, bn2a in Indonesia
Excellent. Thank you from KHVR.
It's good that they come through mountains and caves and you speak their language and that's great. Kids are eagerly waiting for your plane I think you are the first pilot to land on this runway
Que bueno, que bonito, llevar alegria y prigreso a estas familias. Donde sera este paraiso.
Interesting video!

Great video

I appreciate for you.

Hey man , I’m a CFII in the States … what organization do you work for ? Are y’all hiring ? I’m looking to do this
When I was training for my CPL one of my instructors was a missionary pilot in PNG for 7 years. The extra curricular training I received was brilliant. But as a female I was told by him never fly there! Man dog woman in that order. I would not survive. Just before I got my CPL a female helicopter pilot had her throat slit through the night in PNG. Different place for sure.

PNG is wild. The Indonesian side isn't great for women but it's definitely not that bad. I've known a few female pilots here and other than being harassed by drunks, they are generally treated well and really enjoy their time in Papua.
Hey nice video! One question: are there still chances to find a job as a bush pilot? I don't care where in the world. are there places where they search the most? i just did the PPL in switzerland and would be willing to continue.

Look into JAARS in Waxhaw, NC.
Is that in Papua New Guinea?
How tall are you? You seem like a giant compared to the village's average heights.

I'm around 1.9 m which is taller than average worldwide. Meanwhile Indonesians are some of the shortest people on average. So yeah, I have to duck a lot!
Nice.
Super
Can i ask how many hours behind your CPL did you have to get hired in PNG? Thanks.

You are a rude dude dude. Kicking people or even trying is never ok
I see you’re a professional pilot and really knows what you’re doing, I also understand these local people can be stressing to guide and to make them do what’s right, BUT I can also see you being somewhat mean and disrespectful to people who clearly knows very little about the world or politeness. Being a top gun is not excuse to diminish others. So I unsubscribed. 👎
