  • This week on Ice Pilots, Buffalo Joe is on thin ice when he races a classic snow plane that time forgot. The water bomber crew are out of their comfort zone in the sweltering weather on the journey across the globe, and a rookie gets his first taste of danger in some heavy fog.

    I agree, seeing Joe Smile is Great. I use to have a 6 cyl Aircraft engine powered Everglades Fan boat. Was a lot of fun. unfortunately a co-owner forgot to add oil and blew the Motor up. Bummer huh.

      @@pickle4332 My parents lived in northern Cyprus from when they retired until their deaths a few years ago so I have some second-hand experience of Turkish bureaucracy. The issue is not that Customs need to be cleared but that it is paper-based, takes days and weeks instead of hours, needs the physical presence of inspecting agents who may or may not turn up when promised, needs umpty-nine separate pieces of paper which you are only told you need as the process unfolds and so on.
      In this case, why did it take days to clear the aircraft? In western countries, most of the paperwork would have been completed ahead of time and electronically. Had a physical inspection been deemed necessary, a visit of an hour’s duration would have been sufficient to confirm what had been reported in advance.
      That, however, is not the Turkish way.
      Very naive of you to assume that, just because a process is necessary, it is THEREFORE done well and on a timely basis.

      @thomasm1964 Год назад +1

      There is a reason an AEROplane is so called. It planes through the air. This thing planes through the snow. In bad weather, cars have been known to AQUAplane. Speedboats also AQUAplane.
