    Before I moved back to Australia, in the late 90’s my after high school job was at a local packing store in Salt Lake City making custom boxes out of sheets of cardboard.
    Had the opportunity to custom crate the Stanley and Turner cups after the local team (SL Goldeneagles now Utah Grizzlies) won the Turner. Both cups were going on tour before Turner heading to the engraver and back to its new home. Cool experience.

I just can't imagine how these young pilots feel with Buffalo Joe breathing down their necks criticizing every nuance of something he doesn't like!

    Sorry Mikey, but Buffalo is not the "only" airline that flies DC-3s schedule flights in the world. In Colombia SA, there is a city with more DC-3s than any other country in the world, with scheduled flights to places without any roads, in the jungle.

    My father, having spent a great deal of time in Alaska while in the Navy often had to get from one base to another much faster than a ship could take him. He was always reluctant to fly in anything but the DC-3 mainly because he had had issues that often lead to having to go down nowhere near where he was supposed to land if flown out in nay other aircraft, even ones much newer than the DC-3. He always told us that if we had to fly in Alaska winter weather, although he did not advise its, to not do it if they were not flying a DC-3. They are not kidding when they say that the DC-3 has quite the impeccable record in the north, that craft was built, it seems to love ice, cold and bad weather

    "They're too green..."
    "They can barely fly yet and we're putting them in an airplane that is very difficult to fly..."
    The problem is NOT that they're too green or the airplane is difficult to fly. The problem comes down to deficient TRAINING. That falls on Buffalo's head, not the two inadequately trained guys dropped in the hot seat on short notice.

    It would have been really cool if that was the real Stanley Cup, but it wasn't. That was what is called the "Presentation Cup", which was made in 1963. In 1962, the Toronto Maple Leafs won the Stanley Cup. During a party after the win, the trophy was dropped in a bonfire and badly damaged. It was repaired at the expense of the team.
    In 1964, Red Kelly of the Toronto Maple Leafs posed for a photo with his infant son sitting in the Cup, only to find the child had urinated in it. Kelly was quoted years later as saying it has always since made him laugh to see players drinking out of the Cup.
    In 1970, after much wear and tear, the Cup was fully replaced with a duplicate known as the "Presentation Cup" made in 1963 and a second duplicate called the "Permanent Cup", which remains at the Hockey Hall of Fame. From this point on, in official functions and player days with the Cup, it is the Presentation Cup that is in circulation. So, the cup is actually YOUNGER than the plane it is on. Nobody's held the real cup since the 70s.

    Joe's a dinosaur who won't move aside and allow the younger generations to gain experience in flying "his" airplanes. Heck, he even hires new pilots and makes them RAMPIES! Was an utter waste of precious talent! You hire rampies to PREP the planes, and you hire pilots to FLY the planes! It's one thing as a pilot to familiarise yourself with the aircraft, but you don't deny a pilot the opportunity to do the job they were originally trained to do!

      If it was my responsibility to make sure everyone lives, i would be the same way. If something happened to this plane, it's not that easy to replace. I personally would not get on a plane with a 25 year old as the captain, not enough hour's. You know how the guy is when you go to train or work for joe, and the training you won't get anywhere else. God bless.

      @@died4us590 The replacement is a qualified captain. Important word is QUALIFIED. Certified and tested to the necessary level and knowledge to do the job. Joe being there breathing down their necks only adds the pressure and takes their attention away from the job. The guy's ego is the largest problem the company has.

      Reality TV shows tend to assume that their viewers have goldfish memories and need to be reminded of plot points every few minutes. If you took one of these 50-minute episodes and removed all the repeated footage, you'd be doing well to have 20 minutes of original footage left.
