Déjà Vu, Alaska - A Flying Short Film
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 มี.ค. 2018
- Our simple but sacred tradition of making a short trip into the Alaska backcountry in early May continues... While we're at it, we join some local Cub drivers on the Knik river bars, fly some Cessnas into the Alaska range, and seek out some new spots to play. Just like last time, kinda. It all felt familiar, while it was happening. Maybe because... 170s in the Wrangells? • 170s in the Wrangells

I love the "hasn't been painted or washed since 1955" look of that 170. Something about it just really cool!
I think this is the best aviation video I've ever seen on TH-cam. Such amazing work, sir!
MrAviation101 sir you are correct. Ditto that 100%
Thanks!
I must concur. Awesome footage and what a fantastic place to fly, experience and explore. Can't wait to get back up there and get back into the outback flying!!!!! There's nothing better............PERIOD!!!
Aviation101 jday Kim,m I’m.
Oh, yeah!!!! hot 🔥 stuff here, boys !!!!
Outstanding video! The scenery, editing, narration. 10/10
steveo1kinevo thanks Steveo!
I love seeing these older planes that are still to this day the best for that type of flying and still being maintained and used for what they were meant for..

Good ear.
20:00 the sound of that engine is so unbelievably cool
17 years in Alaska, I would like to start my passion in piloting, like I should of done so 12 years ago. This videos continues to give me hope that I can still do it. Thank you for a beautiful and inspiring film.
have you done it yet?
This is torture to a pilot who hasn't been able to fly recently, but I can't stop watching!
The little changes in the pitch of the engine, the wobbles in the wings, the sound of the plane touching down on the gravel, the motion of the Cubs going into a steep bank right after takeoff sets off a twinge in my gut. I can feel my stomach move with the planes, hear my instructor telling me to feel the airplane move through the seat of my pants like it was just earlier today. I can feel the vibrations of the engine as the RPMs change, feel that indescribable feeling when your wheels leave the ground. My hand subconsciously tightens like I'm pulling back on the stick, my leg muscles twitch like I've got rudder pedals under my feet. I can't help but smile as each scene sends memories springing to the forefront of my mind, of good times, scary times, learning times. I yearn to actually be there, to actually feel the plane in my gut.
It makes me realize that flying is really what I'm meant to be doing. It's what I love, and I can't get enough.
Gotta love Larry's landing technique to avoid gear damage lmao! Great Job :)
I've watched your previous Alaska film at least 50 times. I thought that was the coolest video on all of TH-cam. That is until I saw this one. Somehow you've raised the bar even further, and renewed my total infatuation with bush flying all over again. Phenomenal film!
Hey 737 pilot here, flying out of Canada. I'm going back to flying the turboprop with everything going on with the COVID. Just came on here to get a break from the training. Jealous of what you all get to do. Love the tradition, keep it up gentlemen!
Well, consider that it's just a movie of footage from a short period of time, telling the story I want to be living. I returned home to my 2 kids and the grind as a software developer. Since having kids I fly about 25 hours per year. It sucks. At least you're in the cockpit!
You have the BEST edits I’ve seen! Your narration’s are epic! Great job!
In 2001 I had the privilege of seeing exactly what these Alaskan Bush pilots could do. BEYOND AMAZING. I spent about 5 months outside Big Lake and was privileged enough to get a total of 8 hours of flying in myself. There are no better pilots on Earth than the ALASKAN BUSH PILOTS
I've watched this video at least 10 times. More please!
This is beauty on so many levels. Thank you so much for bringing it to us.
Well done! That was a real treat to watch. I'll be sharing and viewing again. Thanks guys!!!

While growing up in Anchorage NEAR MERRILL FIELD I always was proud of knowing my Uncles were pilots in the bush late 30s too 60s.
Looks like fun. Thanks for sharing !

New experience about fly thanks to Backcountry Pilot, great video, i want more video LOL
The best and most sincere aviation production I have ever seen! That's all
Excellent. Everything!!
Amazing footage, fantastic job at an amazing area. The M.A.S.H. scene killed me though, you guys rock!
love your videos always makes my week when I see a notification that you posted a video.
Unbelievable work of art! Great job!
The best of the general aviation. Thanks
Stunning. Beautifully filmed
Some of the best scenery I’ve seen on TH-cam, some beautiful planes and flying in the video too. Put all these things together and you have a video that brings a tear to your eye. Cause your not there but still get to see it. Or could be just me.
As, so true I live here and have flown with some great Alaskan pilots, no place compares to Alaska flying, simple!!!
A really nice video. The narration was just right. Not to much, not to little. Great job.
Amazing video. Transcending beautiful
Love the C-185 sky wagon sound during take off
Completly amazing!!!!
Absolutely fantastic! What fun.. 🤙🏼
Yet more amazing inspiration to fly. Thank you and Backed!
Flacke thank you for the support!!
Very well done. Brings back some memories I'll share this one to my twitter.
I saw the notification and was very excited. Suffice to say I was not dissapointed. Another brilliant video.
Wow! Awesome short landing and takeoff. Cool.
Low and slow love it! I especially liked the scene of the cessna holding 30 feet short of the active 2-track gravel runway(20' wide?) that was pointed at a very large immovable mountain......and that sketchy punk blue paint scheme.
Fantastic film. These guys are great pilots.
Excellent..... & Amazing
Studying for my ratings now, then I'm going up there to fly in the bush. I'm so excited.
YYYYEEEEESSSSS........ Great Job on the M.A.S.H. Theme song. MASH is what got me obsessed with Helicopters as a Child.
Love this! Can't wait to be back in Alaska!!! Great work
Amazingly spectacular.....,!
I am a Pilot from Brazil and this is one of the best aviation videos I have ever seen!
The quality is fantastic!
Good job!
Great production Zzz! Dying of envy...
Very interesting film. Just plain country. Awesome.
Very very nice video. Thanks for sharing.
Excellent piece of work. 👍
I liked the 2nd piece best, probably because I
use to have a Nice Blue & white 1952 C-170B.... 😃
Just way better than any movie!
Mesmerized this is beautiful
Beautiful edit. Thanks for sharing your art with us.
Gertrude Bartlet where the hell have you been?
