OOPS !

My bad........ I've been walking around all day thinking today was Wednesday :isadizzy:. Jeez, I hate retirement.........the days just seem to run together !!
 
Count me in.... this looks to be a good one.

BTW... was that a C-46 they're flying?

LD, retirement sucks doesn't it? Been 14 years for me of forced retirement, and I hate it.
 
Guys, this show is on History Television, not the History Channel. History TV is a CANADA ONLY network.

I don't know why it's being touted as a US show all over the aviation and FS forums, but it has not yet been picked up on any other network.

Shoulda stopped at Dominos pal.. she's thinking right.. it was worth watching!

Couple of nice touches.. they mounted a camera at the top of the C-46's tail and one under the belly. Pretty decent shots of what happens when a mag goes bad, and you can't feather the prop 180 miles from home.

Not a lot of TV over-hype, maybe a bit too "cute" a couple of times but still some great aviation shots (maybe some of the best propliner footage ever taken) and enough pace that even my wife didn't get bored - but we both know some of the Buffalo guys.

Best sequence for me was watching Arnie Schreder coach a new-hire on his first trip through his first landing of a DC-4 (at night, no less). That's how to teach and encourage!

For those who are geographically disadvantaged, pray it gets picked up by your local network, or start looking for the DVD purchase plan when it comes out.
