That’s Silvies! The goats only caddie on one of the shorter courses. I was going to play it, but the goats were down for maintenance that day.

I haven't had it on a dyno since I ported and polished the engine, but stock is 215hp. I've flown one without the port and polish, and it's a very large difference according to the "butt dyno."

Hopefully, we can get to 2,000 before the end of the week, thanks for watching. If you love the content, share it with others :)

Thanks again! I appreciate you!

I've been thinking about making a video on this, didn't know if there was going to be enough interest, if you think I should, let me know. Most of the time I base my power settings off fuel burn. I'm rarely in a hurry with this plane. Roughly, at 9gph, I'm cruising at about 110kts as it sits. If I pull the bushwheels off and replace them with 26", I pick up about 10kts. I'm not a good enough pilot to fly with anything smaller, so I've never tried lol. Let me know if you think I should do a video on the metrics of the plane.

@@AdventureAK I always enjoy a good walkaround video! Not many videos on modified 170's out there. Thanks for the details on your performance numbers. I'm currently cruising at 95mph @ 8gph in my 170B with 8042, Sportsman, and 8.5's. I keep drooling over a big motors with a constant speed but for the price I could rebuild the O300 twice...

Thanks man, I wish you could've done a few legs with me. But... there's always the trip up :)

Thank you so much! I'm glad you're enjoying the channel!

You're absolutely right! I learned a lot from this one.

Nope. Never been there.

@ lol, I meant Dawson’s Creek was filmed there. You asked in the vid.

@ ohhhhhh! Thank you! I didn’t think it was filmed in Dawson creek, but I’m wrong a lot!

That sounds like an awesome trip! The PA-11 is a classic, and there is no rush.

The irony here is that I USUALLY do. 3 weeks prior to this trip my 2 year old “relocated” my wallet and I had to grab that extra card from the plane until I found where she had hidden my wallet. I never put the card back in the plane.

I actually really liked the town! Super nice people, we had a great meal, 10/10 would recommend. :)

First, I'm honored that you've even consider it. Second, the best place to get it is on my channel site - adventureak.com/ Thanks again for even considering it, and please, please let me know how you like it if you do get a bag.

I'm working on K-cups :) Likely third quarter of 2025. They're a tough one to package and take a special machine to do correctly.

Dihedral is the upward angle of the wings (or tail surface) from a horizontal axis. Dihedral makes aircraft more laterally stable, which means they are more stable when they roll left or right.

Geoff is just an all around awesome dude.

Thank you so much for watching them. The journey really is the destination. It took me a while to figure that out :)

I think it is important to feedback on videos. I know the work that goes into them and I know I appreciate them on my videos.

@ I 100% appreciate you taking the time to comment, it does help with the channel, and it helps me make better content for everyone. Thank you so much. I’m now going to head over to your channel and take a look at your videos :)

Thanks for that

Thanks Chip! Come fly with me again!

Totally! That's why I love sharing these experiences with everyone. It took me a while to figure out that the journey really is the whole experience, not just the destination.

Heck yeah! Took me a while to really figure that part out, but it's 100% about the journey.

Thank you very much. Really appreciate you taking the time to watch.

It's always fun to fly floats, no matter where you are!

I run a marketing and business consulting company where we specialize in transforming how businesses connect with their audiences. We’re known for bold, unconventional campaigns (think guerrilla marketing and breakthrough digital strategies) that help brands stand out, scale faster, and rewrite the rules of their industries.

Thank you for watching Corey!! I'll be down in your neck of the woods soon :)

Hahah it was a win and now she loves to camp! You're going to LOVE living up here!

Agreed! She's a PHENOMENAL pilot. She needs to get back flying again :)

Thanks for watching! I'm always looking for ways to make life more adventurous, and I'm glad it's inspiring others!

Thank you for watching! It's a great story and we're so lucky to have Geoff on this journey for a few more days.

Thank you so much! In the latest video I actually went right over the top of Grand Prairie. We stayed in Dawson Creek, then Springbank. I'll keep you posted if we come back up your way in summer. I'd love to see the amphib! Also, working on getting the hats and other merch lined up for around the first of the year.

Big Johnstone is really awesome, this was at Little Johnstone... and I know of a parcel for sale there. You'd need to talk to Kurt, but it's on the market.

Thank you so much!

Sorry, I'll pre-screen my friends with a pack of gum going forward.

You’re right, I should have included a map sooner, it’s hard to follow otherwise!

@AdventureAK ok. Where is the airport you departed? . I like most TH-camrs have a short attention span.

On this journey I departed out of Merrill Field in Anchorage.

I believe this is all unacceptable behaviour. 🫡

@@KevinPaulineNeal haha. Good one! I agree!!

I was that guy for years. Trust me, make the time. It's worth it. Thanks for watching :)

As you know, because you know Geoff, he's an incredible human. I'm so incredibly lucky to get to be his friend, and to have him in my life.

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!

Thank you John for helping me get that story out to everyone. :)

No idea 🤷‍♂️ might have to ask him. Most of the time I don’t name the places I fly out of respect for the other Alaskan aviators.

Phil has an O-320-A2B with Borer prop. He's not the sportiest, but he gets the job done ;)

Thank you! They're the Oakley Holbrook. I've got far too many pairs of them, but these ones in particular have the Prizm Shallow Water Iridium Polarized lens that I love to use for float flying. I'm a bit of a sunglasses addict, but I justify it by saying that I always have the right pair for the day.

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video!

No kidding! It was a tight squeeze, but she was wrong! I told my insurance provider to never watch any of my videos :)

Ha! That was actually my friend Josh flying! He does make it look easy! He is a FAR better pilot than I am.

@ I have been getting a few instructed hours in a Citabria. I want to get some bush flying in when I come up but this spring I’m spending most of my time clearing some Alders. I have a dream of one day putting a small strip on my 80 acres. Looks like I can do about 2,300ft.

It is VERY high on my list.

Thanks! I'd love to see them! If you're on instagram I'm instagram.com/therealbrettbaker or if you hit the "about" section my email address is in there. :)

@@AdventureAK I left you a message on IG. Keep up the great content!👍✈️
