Thanks for 360..on landing flare I’m used to looking left for 5 degrees.. Beautiful nature, reliable plane, complex job..great pilot. Good luck
Thanks a lot for your message! Cheers and fly safe!
Hola Favor colocar el icao de las pistas en tus videos
No icao codes 😂😂
Grande Andre´. Sou colega do teu Pai na Força Area. Esta pista faz lembrar a pista de Vila Gamito no NW the Moçambique. Isto é aviação no seu melhor. Parabens, bons voos e muito sucesso para ti e para os locais . Araço . Pedro Tito
Olá Tito! Muito obrigado pela sua mensagem! Irei transmitir ao meu pai! Sempre gostei de ouvir as histórias dos tempos da guerra, contadas pela malta da velha guarda, incluindo o meu pai. Vocês sempre foram uma inspiração para mim! Um grande abraço!
Thanks!
Thank you so much for your kind donation 🙏
A staredown with a mountain, what a moment before departure..
Indeed my friend 😍
That mountain looks awfully close. I imagine a quick left hand bank right after lift off ? Or a trick of the eye?
It’s a combination of all. With the performance of the Porter I could almost out-climb the mountain when departing straight ahead and with no load. It isn’t as dramatic has the video suggests but it’s still a cool view!
@@APilotsHome yes it is 🙏
Another cool vid, What a beautiful place to live, thanks for the vid👍
Glad you enjoyed it mate! Keep well!
Yep I'm waiting.! 😂 And now the anticipation is getting to me. 😊
A vid will come out sometime about this strip. Hold on 😂
@@APilotsHome don't worry mate. I'm a patient man. But seriously, thank you for sharing. Loving this channel.
beautiful place
Mate, you made my day 😂 felt like a copilot monitoring the approach and final landing
Glad to hear that! That was the whole point of making this video. More will come! Cheers!
@@APilotsHome great, keep it up mate
Don't know why I can't give this a thumbs up, a high five, and a 'that's cool'! Really appreciate the 360 view, and great skill.
No worries! I’m glad you appreciated the video! Keep well!
Every glider and every glider pilot has no ability to go around. Every landing must be perfect. So, this video falls in the "no big deal" category.
Thanks for watching though! But you still deserve my thumbs down 😂
First time I have ever experienced this kind of video, even without goggles... This is another level! 👏👏
Glad you liked it!
I did!
Incredible quality and very cool immersive experience 👍
Glad you enjoyed it🙏
Красота❤ спасибо большое
My pleasure!
Fabuleux ❤❤
Thank you sir!!!
That was very cool!
Glad you enjoyed it 🙌
at 1:01 the right main landing gear got stuck for a moment 2 times
Yeah, the strip was super slippery and the brakes made the wheels lock. Good observation! 😁🙌
@@APilotsHome thanks 😊
Beauty
Took me 30 seconds to realize why the camera was sneezinng when I did! Watched it many times after, this is really neat.
Haha Knut 😂 thanks man! You must try using VR goggles if you can. It’s even better!
Awesome..I haven't had this much fun in years...!!
Glad you enjoyed it 😂😁 more will come! You should try using VR goggles if you can!
Yea...that's another level of documenting this 😍, keep it up and be safe 🙏
Thank you, I agree and I will. Keep well!
So love what you do for the people. I enjoy the happy faces and the anticipation of when they first hear your engine. Do you do flyover to notify your about to land? How do the people know when your arriving ? Did I hear a stall warning just as your touching down?
Thanks for your kind message, Bruce! Yeah, I usually overhead unless I have established radio coms with the village. In that case, and if they know I’m coming I’ll just go straight in to final. I guess if there are no radios then the ppl will only know the plane is coming when they hear it 😂 Yes, we usually land on the stall warning. Cheers for your question! Keep well
Wow. Compliments.
Thank you! Cheers!
Perfect👌
Cheers!
PC-6 nice landing 👍🏻
Cheers!
The pilot is exceptionally skilled, hats off to him. I think some big trees should be cut off frequently for easy landing as these trees will increase day by day.
wow
True, Villagers sing Goodbye songs from their hearts showing love for the people they farewell from their simple hamlets and life style.
Like politics is the Democrats Religion? lol
Thank goddess my religion is flying 😂
Magnifique!
Amazing!
Love the red arrow showing the landing strip.....!!
If you have a working engine a go-around is always an option. Only glider pilots lack that option.
Sounds like you know what you're talking about! 😜
Köszönjük!
Thank you very much! 🙏😊
it's incredible how mountainous it is there . i thought that region of the world was flat jungle . really beautiful .
your camera placement on the plane and the drone flights are really excellent . i do t have much interest in flying but your videos are fascinating . it's always a mystery as to what could happen on each runway .
Thank you so much for your kind message! More vid will come soon! Keep well
Andre,.... pilot, film producer &director and great sportsman.
i wonder if it would be possible to airlift a small bulldozer or even a mid size tractor with ripping blade and box scraper to build these runways ?
The only way to get a bulldozer is to fly it in with a chopper. Too expensive for these villages to afford and extremely heavy. You’d need a big helicopter.
it seems like almost every village has a runway ?
Pretty much!
Katanya papua kaya raya???
Great job. Thank you.
Our pleasure!
Amazing videos bro, how you doing ? How’s life on that side ? It’s been a while ! Hope it’s all going well!
Pilotos temerarios y confiables 😂❤
