Mind you, I wouldn't want to have to travel in a single-engined job over the Papua terrain, even if it's a newish Pilatus Porter.
Yep, an engine failure means choosing the least uncomfortable place to crash...

I watched the first episode, and most of last nights one, and it is a pleasant change from the usual TV fare. I note that one of the pilots was having some misgivings about his intended progression to driving big jets - particularly when his father (an ex airline captain) joined him for one trip, and said he was considering coming out of retirement!
