A friend of mine who has travelled a little in Alaska (as pax) heard this saying from the bush pilots that she met and relates:
"Alaska was pretty fabulous, landing on water and going on by boat to view bears, though the pilots were certainly curious people.
Alaska is very short of women, you could easily find a bush pilot to marry if you were so inclined, but they have the saying, which they tell against themselves,
The odds are good, but the goods are odd."
Any truth in the rumour??
