Welcome to my channel - I am a professional seaplane pilot, and internationally published aviation photographer. I have flown in the Alaska bush, the Caribbean Islands, and New York City. I hope to inspire others to follow their dreams, by sharing stories from these regions.
Photography has always been a hobby of mine, and my artwork can be seen in galleries around the World, as well as online.
My work has been published internationally, in magazines, galleries, as well as online.
I am a one man show, where I film and produce these videos end-to-end.
On my social media channels, and website, you can find more info and several podcast interviews.

The IRS system still uses accelerometers as the ring lasers do not detect linear acceleration only rotation. There is 3 ring lasers one for each axis and accelerometers for each axis.
All the comments saying “great explanation!” Got me to stick around. But you tools 10 minutes to finally get to the point and even then you did a terrible job explaining the ring laser. It is a SINGLE laser beam which is split, sent down two separate paths, then recombined at a SINGLE sensor. You have no idea what you’re talking about.
Beautiful old bird
Why is this plane not still being built?!?!
Great looking Beaver!
There is no way that small difference in the two beams could be measured. If you study Walter Russel he said light has no speed so c is actually zero. They just use xyz accelerometers and the laser is just for show. I think JPL manufacture all the IRS units.
Molto interessante racconto ❤
This guy is really good with this Helio ! Most guys can't begin to fly them like this. He is getting it all from a fantastic airplane! Impressive.
Great flying bro..bless endeavors to u and team
what a shot the first one🎉🎉🎉
Thanks - I had a pretty good vantage point - to film this. Many more helicopter action shots from this location. I'll share more
looking forward to it😊
What a beautifully happy man. Life is too short for some…
I love your cinematic footages!
Great video and excellent editing.
We need a service flight from Philippines to Alaska and inform to office advisory travel agency ya INQUIRY.
How can I imagine the Magloop? How big is the diameter of the conductor?
Best I've seen.
It’s amazing!👍👏
Greased it. 😎
I haven't seen a seagull for many years, it's emotional to see them again💐❤❤
Wow wonderful ❤
Beautiful video ❤
wow
Can't wait for the new Draco... Incredible plane, incredibly talented builder and designer Mike Patey, the most inspiring pilot and builder of our time. His enthusiasm for aviation makes the world a far better place.
I thought Image Capture removed some image meta/EXIF data. No?
So Nice
As a longtime Alaskan, flying with the best AK pilots over the years, I will take a beaver or Cessna 185 anyday!😳
Lovely Beaver
Amazing airplane 👍🏻
Excellent video, very informative and interesting. Thanks for posting.
Just build a little transistorized BFO which you can tune to 455 khz (or whatever IF frequency your radio uses), install an on off switch and since it uses microamps to power it, you can piggy back it to a tube to power it since it doesnt load it down.
Thank you very much for the video. I also have experience flying the PC-6. It's an amazing aircraft. I flew in Africa and encountered high crosswinds several times. Landing this plane in a crosswind is challenging. I have a question: I hold an ICAO license. Can I work with this type of aircraft in Alaska, for example?
It’s majestic
Pretty cool
Did you know Rudolf Wiedler?
two skydiver-safety features: the guard on the horizontal stab AND a guard in front of the tailwheel. But it looks easier to drop from the floor hatch.
it was made to replace the Beaver, and it can do it well. Especially when it got a turbine engine.
As a former engineer at AlliedSignal Aerospace/Honeywell, I can say that you roughly have the concept correct but your model of the ring laser gyro is completely wrong. First off, it’s not a ring! The path is either a triangle or a square. Secondly, there are not two laser emitters, there’s only one that goes through a beam splitter. Third, there are not two detectors, there’s only one that senses the interference pattern.
A little far back on the heels, but otherwise pretty sweet.
i thought he said in one of his videos after draco crashed that he bought another wilga to build
Mike Patey building another Wilga that will significantly outperform Draco
Even these little planes are over a million.
are you trying to to stall?
counteracting the rotation of the prop same thing happens when you take off with a free spinning engine of a Dr 1 tripling ..you must fight the must fight the rotation of the engine
Wow, never seen that before. He banked right before lifting off to take one floater off water at a time. Smart.
HERE WE GO!
✈️
I know that guy!! Palmer!!
Wow!!
Great video Deon, when you come back up this summer we definitely need to meet up!
Thanks Jake - that will be great ! What I didn't mention in this clip - this edit is just a trailer / teaser, with zero storyline - really just experimenting with some storyline concepts. It was more meant for private pre-view, but I decided to share publicly, for exactly this reason - to hear some feedback of the direction i'm going so far. I'll be up this summer... More to follow ...
Amazing
