RIP Arnie and Kelly :(
Both of them passed away
You got to love Arnie, he was a mountain of knowledge, aviation and human knowledge!
The DC 3 is an amazingly designed airplane. An engineering marvel
PLEASE SHOW WAY WAY MORE BUFFALO GUYS, PLANE SAVERS, SO ON AND SO ON - TYVM !! : ) BEST STUFF !
RE: Time Cards, it is not that complicated. I worked in a hospital ER, and personnel would frequently forget to "clock out" on their time sheets, which were hand written. So the policy was simple, if you were scheduled for a 10 or 12 hour shift, and you forgot to clock out, you were paid for a 10 or 12 hour shift. IF you worked OT that day, you lost out for not signing out and writing it down, especially if you bothered to write down, no breaks, no lunch! This pretty much corrected everyone pretty quick into signing out EVERY shift, as no one wanted to lose pay! I am talking about USA here. So they should be able to do the same thing in Canada! You just have to send out a notice to everyone and post it on a bulletin board the new policy so everyone has fair warning! Then do it! Problem solved.
RE: Plane with skis: Fantastic what those planes can do! I am officially impressed and impressed with how these pilots problem solve, keep things on a tight schedule and follow the safety rules so that everyone is safe! Totally awesome. I am afraid to fly from all the stuff I have seen down here in the States, however, from what I have seen on THIS SHOW, I would fly with these guys on one of their old planes! I would take a chance, because these guys are so safety conscious and care so much for those they service! My family knows me, and that is saying a lot!
Great to see a LC -47 again
Don't let history die
Best to keep all opinions open
You never know what a cilent needs
There is no airplane ever created that matches the versatility, roughed ability and durability like the glamrous DC3. This particular video proves, the old plane and an old pilot can take her everywhere safley for what ever purposes like the good old days. Nice job folks!
That’s the coolest thing ever
Love it, DC 3 on skis
The bass player in that intro song is amazing
Kelly gets the timeclock mulligan..........ALWAYS! You guys would be up schitt's creek without her.
No matter what your job is, always remember YOU ARE MORE THAN YOUR JOB.
The best as always, thanks Arnie!!!
these videos are priceless keep up with this great show and never let it dissapear
Great group of people at Buffalo.
One HELL of a story !!! All the way around.
The next episode better not be the one showed at the end as we have seen that one already.
Such a wonderful era....the venerable DC - 3
For the Ole Timers ITS ALL IN THE TOUCH :) then grin from ear to ear
"Air America" (CIA) flew the DC-3's in southeast Asia (VN) during my vacation in-country. A real work horse.
I'm hooked on this channel/series.
I think they flew DHC-4 Caribou
AMAZING DC-3 ON SKIS !!!!!!!
Love these
Very brave pilots that they are flying DC-3 the oldest aircraft.
Colombia is also using these aircrafts as transport aircrafts.
Only these episodes are good on this channel
Just awesome....
Awesome!
real nice landing, despite the look at the captains face... DOH!!!!
The military derivative of dc3 still has 40 airplanes in service … mostly smaller countries like south africa, etc.
There's a lot more than 40. I live in Anchorage and when I drive by the airport I see five lined up on the tarmac. That's just one company.
@@kixigvak
I agree, there are more than 40, I was referring to just those still in military service. Easily see more in commercial service… never heard ho many but over 100? I heard military number of 40 came from a war history channel.
NOYICE ‼️
So cool
Upload some “I survived” videos again please :)
I'm surprised Joe doesn't have a set of edo floats for the 3 in the back yard
He does !
Wow
I worked at a nursing home that changed the time clocked, because the whole company changed time clocked.
It was cool to the D c 3
Excellent Video.
I really enjoyed that.
Greetings from a 1000 Degree boiling Hot South Africa 🇿🇦.
✋ Hey! Here is someone addicted to this good old plane with 78 degrees of lavish temp in 🇪🇹. 😀 Good evening!
You can see the film crew on the helicopter filming the ski test flight
Feel bad for Kelly, seems like she breaks her back just to be told it's not good enough.
what do you do on new-year? watch these videos, and what are you most scared of? plains,,,
my life is going great
What Buffalo needs is a DC3 on floats
indeed, it is a solution for melting lakes and warm winters
DONT MIND ME ASKING?HOW OLD THE OLD MAN THAT MASTER OF FLYING THANK GOD BLESS HIM
I remember one boy got one of those kids snowmobiles . Not sure what make it was . Still it was small and all the kids wanted one but that boys Dad was making lots of money and bought the boy many toys .
We've already seen the Stanley cup episode you guys have it in the Playlist. Give us the one that comes afterward.
Please get more mayday series
A tractor! That’s a big plane.
What happened to the little kabobs tractor ?
Okay okay we get it the ice is melting. I got it the first 16 times the speaker said it. I understand that it is dangerous to land on ice but they make it sound like 25" of ice is doing to melt in 3 hours. Other then the speaker its a great show.
That happens in a lot of these type of documentaries. 'Possible loss of money, of income, of time, loss of reputation, loss of contract, possibly losing clients, loss of equipment..., and so on. Ever watched Outback Truckers? it's even worse there. Great series nevertheless.
@@Tillerman56 Hehe yeah they like to make it seem so dramatic :D :D
It's the narrative version of "click bait."
I wish there was some way to mute the announcer's voice--everything he says is negative what-if's, designed to make the audience tense.
it's interesting, you get the idea that other people (like Kelly) have "cool jobs" which are "secure" but then you realize they also face very similar problems to yourself. They should upgrade their time-card to something like what we have where you punch in/out with your thumbprint or keycard or a code. This way people won't forget and its easier/faster.
I think the show was made before the type of technology was able to be effectively used like that yet.
Come on stasioner ice senwisch
Tell her and her employees what the clocking rules are and have admin monitor compliance. You do not need a “new manager”.
I want to see there car collection
we started on elans
Can some one tell me what the aeroplane at 5:30 is looks like a LAC Prospector EP9
How is Arnie's daughter? I know he died in 2012 and Kelly in 2017
Can dog face open a lane? How much does it mean to dog face?
I wonder how much the client paid to have the DC3 with skies drop-off supplies?
I'm sure it wasn't cheap! There wasn't enough material delivered to build a large building though. Perhaps a small cottage, but not a resort...
DC 3s were used by the US Army during world War 2
Why is this a rerun
Obvious to make some videos for other people too. Mckenzie has Bigfoot.
I am an Indian.l love indigo.
A
The bald heads look beautiful, ladies...
Jdjss
Kelly is just a huge cry baby in all these episodes. Im so so sorry you have to do a timecard, just like literally ever other employee at any other job. Get over yourself.
She cant hear you. She passed away like 5 years ago
@@Estoooopid fr? Wow I never knew rip kelly
exactly, one minute she is stressing out about keeping her job the next she is sooking about having to keep proper time management
Why are these clowns always doing the wrong thing at the wrong time
Getting on airplane ✈️ is suicide
No. Getting in an automobile is suicide. The most dangerous vehicle in the world
@@rocioaguilera3555 is the car the most dangerous vehicle in the world ??? Do you know how many survived a car accident? very many, how many escape with their lives from a plane crash? almost zero .... the car is not dangerous, traffic participants make dangerous situations, but on a plane, the device itself can become deadly
@@leatheraccessories646 flying is the safest because it kills fewer people by the kilometer traveled than driving. So yes, your chance of getting killed is way more while driving your car, period.
@@leatheraccessories646 that is cap
