You keep your cool even when it’s obvious that you’re right on the edge. You never just “go for it” and go around even if the tailwind increases 1mph over limit. Definitely what has kept you safe and alive. You must love what you do because there’s a lot of mainline carriers out there that would be lucky to have you. Keep up the good work and stay safe.

Good flying man. Thanks for sharing! Stay safe.

Ryan, we have a similar situation in Providencia, Colombia... with a little scarier fact. We came from a normal passengers jet to San Andres international airport (everything big), then we went to a little airplane (like yours), where you are sitting just behind the pilot, 45min almost touching the Atlantic ocean and then this beautiful isle, round around between the mountains to see something like a football field where we landed, under the rain!!!... the honeymoon was over. We were shaking for hours. lol

good job. if you can fly there you can fly anywhere ...

after watching a lot of these, i STILL HAVE NO BLOODY IDEA WHAT THEY ARE SAYING....... how can you comprehend them?? my god id turn comms off and just send an email :(

brilliant thanks for this. kids dream come true

Very cool video! Reminds me of some of the remote strips in Alaska when I was stationed there, although I never had to land on a strip with that kind of slope.

Just joined and am blown away at your skills and some of the spots I have seen so far. I fly a 79 TU206 with factory STOL kit into pretty cool Idaho bush strips but NOTHING like these. Fun to watch you apply your trade. Scott

Easiest way to stop any vehicle shoot the driver

Japanese snipers we're taking out planes with single shots

That was nothing for you. Just imagine Adam somebody shoot at you at the same time that you had to land like back in World War II

Yeah I do it hell yeah...

It was very stressful indeed. Can't even imagine if I was onboard with you. But you made it, Fantastic! Were you trembling when landing the plane?

How and where do you land in case of emergency landing (engine stops working, prop stops turning or gets off) on a flight from goroka to omkalai for instance? I mean the terrain has rare locations where landing would be possible. Does your airplane have a CAPS (Cirrus Airframe Parachute System)?

F**K!!

I think I just landed here in MSFS2020

PNG still has the magic for pilots. Started my flying there 1968 in a Helio courier.

i bet you'll touch on your first attempt if its not for the gopro recording... haha nice vids, been flying for some time on the other side of papua myself and it is challenging even for seasoned pilots

Wow, that was fantastic! I knew you were really working when you didn't speak on touchdown! Such a good lesson for me to see you go around without hesitation. We all have egos and want to complete the mission. Great job Knowing the conditions, after the fact, would you have landed or went back? Is there anyway someone could contact you or the company and advise real time conditions at the destination? HAM radio or something? Appreciate the video.

That's insane, but so exhilarating. Learned a lot in 5 mins!

Great job, excellent flying. Be safe

800+ gave a thumbs down. how could anyone possibly dislike this vid? Thank my man!!

You have faith...cause that landing was crazy....

What are these two red cab roof levers? 🇧🇷

Job Well done!

Ou,perfect👏

You are crazy but handling it very well. Salute brother!!!

Glad I wasn't with you - you are good!

Thank goodness for that beta :D

How does that Airframe support those balls my dood haha!

God bless you.

geez! That's brutal! So no chance of a go around at after 17:38? Good job btw... very impressive.

Great stuff. Well done. Admire your discipline. Blessings in Christ.

Excellent, totally enjoyed it!

VERY interesting....glad you made it!!!

Not for an average week end pilot :)

I enjoy this particular landing at Aibai. Tracking from Kundiawa was lengthy following the road than this. Good

Pretty awesome..

Most impressive

Excellent

Well done and safe flying to you.

great skills son

NERVES OF STEEL!

Needs ATV tires.

I know nothing about flying. Throughly impressed.

You got some nads dude

Great HD video but a little disappointed you didn't include the takeoff from there.

Exemplary skills Ryan

Well, at least now I can relax. That was a real challenge.

love you man. you're awesome.

Drama

he 's driving it like a car hahhahaha

So thankful for this service into my home village in PNG! Keep up the great work in PNG!!

very nice to comment about go around. shows great judgement.

I don't have words to describe except to say BRILLIANT MY FRIEND! I Salute You!

what's the headset type？

Superb piloting, very calm when heart rate is high!! Bless you

I felt some apprehension, though you did up load this so... thanks for taking us along.

Incredible and impressive flying!

Wow ..that was a hard landing ..the plane must almost get damaged on rough strips like that ....banging the wiring loose ..sheesh ..be careful

Yes.. that's crazy.. not stupid though.. rocking!!

Wow! Thank you very much for this amazing video!

"The propeller is just a big fan in the front of the plane to keep the pilot cool. Want proof? Make it stop; then watch the pilot break out into a sweat."

Crazy

NTE safe Landing

Too good Wantok

Along with the an awesome flight you also provided beautiful video capture from multiple angles and post editing !!

I’m not a pilot and I’ve never played one on TV...but nonetheless, impressive flying. Your attention to detail and thorough professionalism is impressive. Looking forward to more of your adventures.

Greetings from Germany 👍🏻GREAT JOB 🌏✈️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻✈️👌✈️👍🏻👨‍✈️👌👌🌏

I COULDNT SEE THE RUNWAY EVEN WHEN YOU LANDED WHO WANTS ME TO DRIVE LOL GREAT VIDEO VERY FRIGHT FULL,THANKYOU VERY MUCH FOR THE VIDEO

The Lord's got your back, Brother!

DAMN! Hes good!

Great scenic flight & excellent honest commentary even right to “ok, we’re committed”. The runway sheet proved to be true too.👌🏽

Super video! I applauded for $2.00 👏

You got some big cohenes my man.

Great job brother!!! Great video, great explanations, great split screens, and very informative. I look forward to seeing more of your adventures. Stay safe and enjoy that adrenaline! 😁

Fantastic viewing and had me on the edge of my seat!! Brilliant job indeed :-)

Wow

awsome!

pretty damn cool

Good job! The landing and the work ;) I flew for The Flying Medical Service in Tanzania, we have one airstrip very similar there - I always say 'if you are not nervous on short final, you shouldn't be landing there' Keep up the good work! :)

Umm... might take me a bit longer, but I think I'll rather walk to get up there. But that's just me. Well done! You have nerves of steel.

Great Video

Great work 👏

You were two times below the glideslope...

Stressful landings is a part of being a pilot. I've been through quite a few doing SAR, for instance. To drive a motorcycle is much worse if the drivers would consider it in beforehand!

450 meters runway? That's tough enough for a Cessna 172!

My PPL flight instructor explicitly prohibited us to wear short sleeves and shorts or ANY kind of "Hawaii shirts", for that matter. To this day, I've kept to that. However, this pilot is good!

18:17 - is that a cheeky little handbrake turn?

So I grew up in the village of Aibai for about 15 years. My dad planned and had the airstrip built. Trying to get to Goroka by car takes 6-9 hours one-way, and you run the risks of landslides and highway robbers. The flight is only about 15 minutes like the gentleman in the video said. The reason the strip is so short is because below the airstrip is a road. My dad considered blasting out the mountain to lengthen it, but so far, that has proved cost prohibitive. Btw, it took about 12 years to build this airstrip (the government bulldozer got stolen, which slowed the project by several years). Excellent job on touching down on this strip!

Such a green country!

Pilot 110%

Nope, nope, nope. You are the consummate professional pilot. I’ll watch from over here, thank you very much.

What country or area was this located?

Here I was doing the "TERRAIN, PULL UP" inside my head during that approach. I'm no pilot but I've seen enough videos to understand that this requires extra skill. You can sense the deep concentration kicking in after the "I'm commited" statement

No thanks. My hands are sweating

This guy has huevos de acero! Cool under fire and under control. Great situational awareness.

This one and St. Bart's are the worst!

Runway? That looks like a run-slope for a glider pilot. How could such grass knoll get on the air map? Well done putting a plane down on that mud slope. Crazy place where men are men and all other are nervous...
