0:11 -- Cobra chickens be like "Show-off!", all jealy.
I've seen that Pilatypus here in Boise before...along with a few others. Nice bird, nice sound.
This one was always a fun visitor to see at CZNL, haven’t spotted it for a few years now. Bet you must get some nice traffic at Boise!
The geese are definitely jealous of the PC-12.
@@TheHDAviation -- Oh, we get PC-12s, Malibus, Meridians, KingAirs, Warthogs, Eagles, Falcons, Hornets, Talons, an errant AC-130...plus airliners and, during the midsummer, arriving & departing firebombers, like DC-10s, RJ85s, BAe-146s, even an MD-80. I sure miss the Q400s...sad to see 'em go.
This airport def needs a goose chasing dog employed full time :)
Ya, the runway is always pretty covered in goose poop. There are lots around right now enjoying all the fresh grass.
Fantastic footage and great sound! Thumbs up my friend ;)
nice bird hazard
love this plane
Ya, CZNL always has quite a few geese hanging around. Love the PC-12 as well, one of my favourites.
I like animals, but I don't think taking out a few dozen geese that are a potential risk is going to endanger the population of this species. They're out of control, and they're everywhere!
@Roberto V, yes and no. They would chase them off, but perhaps drive them to occupy another airport. I'm in favor of thinning out the population. Responsibly.
The airport could specialize in goose pate. Every time a goose strike over the intercom now serving tarmac fresh goose 👌 pate
Well It is indeed Nelson, BC, Canada as stated below by *Maynerd* *Parroteye.* The mountainous terrain is hauntingly reminiscent of Engadin Airport in Switzerland, but stop at 0:00 and one clearly sees a signboard with *Norman* *Stibbs* *Airfield* - some armchair research confirms that this is in Nelson BC...
Watch out for those Canadian geese, some big birds. Actually not sure what those were just a guess. Awesome takeoff tho. My #2 dream plane behind the TBM940
OK, this has always had me wondering . . .
What does the alternate flashing of the landing lights signify?
man this is crazy. the pilot must have seen the geese at the end of the runway but still TO right into them?
They got spooked, and at that point in the take off, there's no stopping. Prop would have chewed the crap outta them anyway, not like a jet intake issue. ala Sully on the Hudson
Years ago, I had to wait 20 minutes for a migration of starlings or something that were flying over the runway at Westosh/Wilmot WI. long stream of birds as far as the eye could follow. ended up doing a short field takeoff to go under and avoid them.
There’s a lot of geese at that airport =scary
there were so many birds
Birds!
I thought they were driving it to town and back lol
Those geese are just ho-hum...we gotta eat, who cares if that big loud machine is right by us.
Seems high risk of bird strike
Yes, there are quite a few geese that hang around the airport. Definitely a hazard.
I absolutely love the sound of the engine!
Same here!
