#1: Interesting TV Show - 'Ice Pilots' Author: bsmart, Location: Central MarylandPosted: Mon Jun 20, 2011 1:06 am ---- Here in the States it's on National Geographic Channel. It is about Buffalo Airways mainly in Yellow Knife Canada. They Fly DC-3s, DC-4s, L-188 Electras, CL-215 Water Bombers and C-46 Commandos!!!
I didn't even know there were any C-46s still flying The show has been interesting, following the people and the airplanes. I'm watching an episode now where they are delivering two CL-215s from Yellowknife to Turkey. It's interesting including an IFE due to an engine issue.

There's a polished bare-metal one at the Dulles Smithsonian not far from where I live, but the green & white livery of the one in this series really accentuates the lines of the airplane. Makes a good show even more fun to watch.
And Bushy saw it first!
