Ice Pilots TV Series

From the same genre as ICE ROAD TRUCKERS, here comes ICE PILOTS!

Haven't downloaded any yet as I just got onto it however it looks pretty cool from the previews that I've seen!

It comes up under the usual Google searches for torrents but I'm yet to find if they are valid. We might be jumping the gun a little with it as it looks to be only up to episode 3. One would hope than an Australian channel will pick it up, it certainly looks like it has the potential to be a good watch.

If they're flying radials then it has to be Alaska. A whole heap of interesting stuff up there that make lovely sounds. Unfortunately, they tend to lose a few as well to vagaries of weather and maintenance.

I thought the Dr. or Jaba might have noticed this baby sitting on the dash in the promo video!




Is there ANYTHING that a 296 (or greater) can't do!!!

Even ELVIS has one as the primary non-primary navigation device

With Canadian arctic the compass is probably only useful to put you on a declination line - if you can see the sun. Dip would be helpful if there was no aurora.

Ooh yeah!

I just installed Free VPN by WSC

Once installed open the program, and chose the connect option. Connect to the CA server. Wait for a few seconds and it will connect.

Then go to Videos - History Television and you should be able to watch

Enjoy.

Not too bad

Its wasn't actually too bad. Interesting having a bum engine that wont feather, then doing the approach off centre with low cloud ceiling. Not a bad bit of work. The co was visibly rather worried.

Another good show that recently aired on foxtel was Jetstream. Following a group of pilots training to be a part of the Canadian airforce f18 squadrons. Should be available out there to download. Hoorahhh!!

Hmm. I just checked mine and it's now doing the same thing to me too.

How very odd, it was working perfectly a couple of nights ago!
