@@MissionaryBushPilot I know that is not easy. I only fly rotors because I have to and never really wanted to. I have a fellow pilot who lost 70% of his arm to a prop in South America. We still roll some great missions down in the Andes.
That was simply fantastic. Probably my favorite one yet. The scenery in that valley, the drone footage, the helicopter... it was just all so well done.
Thanks for your good videos on humanitarian work,i love that job as aviation enthusiast since childhood.Am a christian man in Kenya.keep it up be blessed.
4:30 Majestical. I'm dead.🤣🤣🤣👍 My dude Stencil, a man of few words, very tight grip on that front cockpit grab rail on the right for the entire flight out, and then chilled, shot selfies and texted on the way back. 😎😁👍
I have been a pilot for 34 years. Grounded for 16 months so far after a severe Covid-19 infection. Ended up with lung damage. Don't know if I will ever fly again. But I really enjoy these videos. One more way to stay connected to aviation for me beside flight sim these days. Nicely done!
I used to fly a civilian Herc for outsize cargo all over the world. That was reminiscent of a particular runway in Angola in the 70’s and 80’s. It was very short with a slope and a turn around at the top just big enough for us. We could only bring in 10,000# of cargo and depart empty. The aircraft limit was 45,000-50,000# of cargo. I remember the adrenaline the first time I went there. The good thing about that place was we never took ground fire there like some other “airports” in country (the Angolan civil war was raging at the time and neither side necessarily recognized us as an agreed to neutral party). Now, I’m retired and flying my own 185. You’re a talented pilot, the kind I was always grateful to find and have as a crewmember, and I wish you success in aviation. Maybe I’ll see you in the Idaho backcountry sometime.
14:54 "oh snap" moment. Makes sense given the remoteness of everything and what you do, just didn't expect that. You are providing such an important service.
This bird is so powerful! It's true, no one flight is the same as the last. The babies are really enjoying a carnival with all the aircraft coming in and going. Never had it so close when I was small! Picturesque landscapes down there. These flights are one Eye-opener. Thanks captain, for the wise words and stay blessed.
27:38 When you said that it took you 14 years, I have to say I can definitely relate! It's been well over a decade just on training alone for me (it's taken that long for lots of different reasons). But I'm pressing on and, God willing, I'll be testing for a CPL before the end of the year. Thank you for those encouraging words. Love watching your videos. Keep up the good work brother.
Brilliant. I love New Tribes Mission and MAF. We get their newsletters , but I'm always frustrated how few videos there are of the flight details - for those of us interested in flying, that's what we want!! Great to see and I'll be back for more! God bless everything you do. Ha ha ha...I was just gonna make the 'majestical' comment myself!!
Hi Ryan from Adelaide South Australia. I watch all your videos but this one is the best ever - really enjoyed it . Thanks and keep up the good work.II did a school trip To PNG about 50 years ago when the country was still a territory of Aust. We visited Moresby,Lae and Rabaul and stayed in school dorms with the local kids. We also played a game of Aussie rules football and about 3pm the rains came ! Great times.
Always nice when you pop above the fog / low clouds and the day above is beautiful. It's a reminder that above all cloudy days is a beautiful day. Another spectacular mountain airport. That airstrip later in the video that you fly over looks super scary & impossible, sheer drops at both ends of the runway. And you look forward to that!
Wild scenery. The landing strip looks hidden until almost the last moments - wouldn't want to get lost here. I had no idea the altitudes were that high in Papua, either. Pretty epic, thanks for sharing
Thank you Ryan Though it's already been said your best one yet in my opinion pure unadulterated scenery, your message at the end was the icing on the cake. Take care of yourself and your family.
Great blog Ryan, loved this format. Not sure if anyone noticed but the hello pilot had prosthetic legs, which shows that you never weak of body, if you are strong of spirit..
Great video Ryan! Best one so far. You mixed in all of the aspects of your work. As a pilot and a former CH-47 Chinook flight engineer, watching the sling loading took me back to my Army days in the 70's. Also say Hello to Stencil, I know how much work being 'ground crew' is. See if you can get him to talk on camera sometime. Good job, look forward to your future content.
Hey my brother Ryan wow this video was awesome & pls make more videos like this & I love looking at the beautiful valleys & waterfalls in PNG & yes your job is awesome as well my brother Ryan & my prayers are always with you in the air & NTK.
Ryan, as a retired pastor who visited missionaries in the Philippines when I was in the Navy and seeing the hardship they live through when life could be so easy back home, I want to thank you for your service to these missionaries in Papua New Guinea. You are one of hundreds around the world who give their lives in service to others and fly dangerous missions every time you pilots fly. Thanks for taking us along with you.
Thank you, Ryan, for this incredibly interesting video! I loved all parts of it, like your 2 flights and watching the helicopter using the sling carriage. It was amazing! 👏👍🤗
Hi mate. Love your videos. Grew up in Vanuatu and an aviation enthusiasm . Very professional videos. I am your co pilot every time I am watching you. Keep up the good work mate.
Ryan - this is one of the BEST VLOGs ever. I really appreciated the "on ground" content which gave a great context to the missions of your flights. Please consider including those sorts of enhanced contents on the ground in the future. And, as always, I enjoyed your clear narration of the flight dynamics as you flew from place to place. What a fantastic landscape as well! Thanks for your work.
I loved this flight, it was so beautiful! I couldn’t help notice what looked like a casket removed from the aircraft and I appreciate that out of respect for the families, one must observe respect for this kind of flight. It was emotional for me the there was one last last flight for someone coming home. Much respect for what you do as lives depend on you for a professional service delivery done with love! Thank you for this video!
Thanks Ryan for sharing this incredible experience in PNG! I'm sure it took a huge effort to record while performing your responsibilities. This is your best one yet! Thanks too all your team for your service!
That's Awesome Ryan. Very informative with the walk and explanation of what You do.....Love it...Be safe always with wheels up...prayers. ...Thank You.
Concur... the few seconds of getting to see the places, effort, activity .... the stuff that defines why you do what you do .... was very nice to see. Thanks so much
Never disappointed with your videos. This was great. 2 months away from starting flight school. I appreciate the words of encouragement. Thanks for sharing.
Life in a remote place makes you really dependant on those who can move your needed goods. Unsung heroes? yah , mostly. Would not want to do that landing in a rainstorm or in dark conditions. Brother, you got some stones. That is all natural beauty for sure. What a trip and what a valley.
Props for badass chopper pilot. How good you must be, to pilot chopper with mechanical leg.
He also flys the Kodiak
@@MissionaryBushPilot that is so great to hear. I have some fingers amputated and fly 172. Hope to get to commercial 😊💪
@@MissionaryBushPilot I know that is not easy. I only fly rotors because I have to and never really wanted to. I have a fellow pilot who lost 70% of his arm to a prop in South America. We still roll some great missions down in the Andes.
What a beautifull part of the world. Thank for another fine video.
That was simply fantastic. Probably my favorite one yet. The scenery in that valley, the drone footage, the helicopter... it was just all so well done.
...and the music! You can't go wrong with an Ooyy soundtrack (...although I don't think that's a word.)
Thanks for your good videos on humanitarian work,i love that job as aviation enthusiast since childhood.Am a christian man in Kenya.keep it up be blessed.

A video that had everything! Flying, preparations, ground and drone footage, and of course the wonderful scenery. Thank you for that.
Glad you enjoyed it

You can tell the local man is both scared and amazed. What a lucky guy to get to fly like that.

Awesome vídeo! Loved the "fast travel" parts and the always green scenery of PNG.
You are such a good ambassador to the world and am living your dream, kudos to you sir.

The drone shot of the helicopter departing with slingload is giving me goosebumps.

Simply ... AWESOME! Solid work Captain! 😎
Beautiful Countryside. Great coordination on the ground. Excellent Piloting. Enjoyed the video.
Truly magistical! Thanks for another great video Ryan!
I liked the music, it was subdued enough to not be annoying. Thanks for the extra content!
Thank you Ryan
Though it's already been said your best one yet in my opinion pure unadulterated scenery, your message at the end was the icing on the cake. Take care of yourself and your family.

That is really amazing scenery, Ryan. Millions of kids, eh? Guess there's no TV up there? Your sped-up footage when you fly at 400 mph is fun.
Hey my brother Ryan wow this video was awesome & pls make more videos like this & I love looking at the beautiful valleys & waterfalls in PNG & yes your job is awesome as well my brother Ryan & my prayers are always with you in the air & NTK.

For sure one of your best videos to date Ryan! Awesome!
Watched a video this morning about the MAF pilots in Paupa, One of the 210 pilots had your little black box up on his dash.
Nothing beats a startup of a turbo prop. Love it Ryan
Great video I liked the additional ground video and watching the helicopter with the sling load. Definitely a nice change of pace.
Thanks for showing and sharing your work space ,.........too good.......stay safe.
I didn't "like" this video; I *LOVED* it! One of your very best videos! Thank you for sharing, as it's hard not to travel anymore...

My favorite video for sure. Thanks for the interesting content and great editing.
Great Job, your videos are so much enjoyable!
Life in a remote place makes you really dependant on those who can move your needed goods. Unsung heroes? yah , mostly. Would not want to do that landing in a rainstorm or in dark conditions. Brother, you got some stones. That is all natural beauty for sure. What a trip and what a valley.
Awesome video. Love the personal testimony stuff too!
Amazing view and great video. Love this. Definitely my favorite video.
Thanks for showing! Love this style of your videos 🛩️

The co-pilot is a relaxed guy.
