This is Papua New Guinea, one of the most geographically challenging countries in the world! These missionary pilots are real heroes in this country!

Ryan, always amazed at these flights you do. The way you talk-out your plan and remain calm..... you're a DUDE!

Un mec oui,mais surtout un pilote ,un VRAI. Courage et santé.

I flew jump seat on many cargo flights around South America in the late 70's in jets as old as 20 years back then. No palletized cargo systems or tech. I'd heard rumors that some of the pilots kept a bottle of scotch handy in the cockpit. Our flight out of Panama was delayed as the plane we were to use had crashed on take off in Venezuela. The crashed plane had Peter Frampton's sound equipment on it. The Sound engineer and the flight crew did not survive. Just to add more drama, the 20+ year old standby jet we go to replace the one that crashed took an awfully long time to leave the ground and when it did the cargo shifted. A sensation few people live to describe. You guy's are a different breed. Hat's off to you!

We've heard reports of unrest in PNG, with riots in Port Moresby. Stay safe Ryan. Hope this doesn't impact the great work you are doing.

Ryan doesn't have to worry about what's happening in POM he's pretty much in the safe part of PNG

So inspiring to watch folks working at activities that make the world a better place! And then combining that with amazing attention to detail and professionalism... love this channel!

Thank you

I'm learning to fly, and I'm getting very close to my check ride. Practicing off field landings on short grass strips, in a PA28-140, was the most nervous flying I have done. But after a while I got confident doing them. Watching your videos have helped me greatly in showing me that it can be done, and done safely. Just run the checklists, follow the procedures for short and soft fields, and stay focused. So thanks for showing me it can be done. Cheers from Winnipeg. (edit: BTW, I think your coffee table book is at my post office ready for pickup! YAY!)

Great to hear you're feeling more comfortable with the grass strip landings. They made me nervous too when I started. Enjoy the book

I'm really impressed with waterfalls and rugged terain at Yawan. It looks very challenging for sure. Sounds like there will be a lot of flights with building supplies. Thanks Ryan, great video.

Thank you Ryan for your unselfish dedication. Always love these videos!

Ryan, fantastic flying. Thanks for taking us along.

When the beat dropped on that music for the time lapse I definitely felt it. Great video, keep it up!

What a gorgeous flight and a beautiful waterfall. Thanks for taking us along! Looking forward to seeing the progress here.🙏

Hi bro, I am proud of what you do. It takes alot of sacrifice and time to serve people and their needs. You and your organization do a marvelous job. Love your videos. God bless. Regards from Bougainville.

Every flight you have is so risky that it's a live or death situation in landing on those runway . But the way to proceed it is so claim that you are able to do that in a regular basis is just truly amazing.

I’m a retired career airline pilot. I’ve been all over the world but I’ve never seen anything like this. It looks like a dream job to an old fart at 77 years of age. A short runway for me is 6000 feet , lol. This was a great video and I envy you.😊

Hi Ryan...I am happy to see that you are back in PNG. I plan to pick up where I left off after your return to the states. You are the best. Thank you for your dedication and education to those of us unfamiliar with the culture and the people of PNG. Aloha from Maui

Just amazing, complicated stuff. Please stay safe! Thank You for these unique videos.

God Bless you sir for the service you do. Challenging terrain to navigate, demands excellent skill. Thank You for sharing the flight and the brain work to live through it.

Love that time lapse at the end. It was like an awesome flying dream.

Great flying PNG is such a beautiful country to live work and fly. When we flew Boug Air in the 70s we always said we fly on a wing and a prayer .. many times it was so right. Keep up the great work you're doing Ryan. Bushyboy Oz

These videos are spectacular. I have always enjoyed watching different flight videos, but most of those are jet airliners with the most up-to-date technology and you’re putting this together almost ad hoc with a little or no guidance. You are a consummate professional.

Best flight videos. Look forward to these every week😀

i specifically bought flight sim just to fly and land in the mountains in PNG because of your videos. I love the way you keep yourself safe.

Thanks, Ryan. Great video. Very scenic!

That was an insanely nice landing, good work! Balls of steel.

The landing and take-off were the most spectacular to watch at the end of this video. Thanks for sharing it with us!

Your videos are great and very enjoyable to watch. I do have an idea of how much you love it because I spent a few 1000 hours Island hoping my 172 to almost every Island in the Caribbean. It's the most relaxing and calming thing that can be imagined.

U have the best job in the world Ryan ! Great footage love the time lapse scenery it's beautiful & Michael Fk All the best Stay Safe Jo & Winnie 🇳🇿👍

God bless you and your ministry to the people you serve and the pilots who learn execellent piloting procedures from your videos.

Beautiful landing in a tight spot. Amazing to watch!

These vids are super informative and VERY inspirational. Great pilot and teacher keep up the great content and clear skies!

It never ceases to amaze me the places people are fortunate enough to live. Waking up in a quiet village nestled between lush green mountains and breathtaking waterfalls, no traffic noise, no hum of electricity. Sure it may be considered primitive by the standards of people living in the west but I don't think it is a bad thing. Keep doing the Lord's work bro and stay safe out there!

Love watching you do your job .

Stay safe when on the ground there, my brother. Tucking up into one of those remote villages would be very enticing to me right about now.

TY R, Very enjoyable flight.

Nicely done Ryan again!

G,day Capt Ryan from Sydney Australia. That waterfall is majestic absolutely. Interesting ballest weight in the Kodiak for CG equilibrium. 🌏🇦🇺

Tack för filmen❤😊

I do love those timelapses Ryan 👍

Qué gran labor está haciendo Este capitán al llegar a esos sitios tan lejanos Yo pienso que él no lo hace tanto por la paga sino porque le gusta ayudar a la comunidad humilde Gracias Dios por existir personas como Este capitán

Nice ”last sec nose up” manouver and soft landing

The sight is impressive, nice views !!!!!

That's one crazy airstrip.... great piloting skills.

Amazing flight and video and great music too! Top notch piloting skills!

It takes courage to perform such a landing! Congs Mr!!!
