No wonder you are considered the safest pilot on You Tube. You were interrupted by a radio call with an incoming aircraft and you went right back to your checklist. You didn't get a "gotta get outta here before the other guy tries to land" anxiety and stuck with it. Really terrific work sir! You fly in a very important and dangerous environment doing God's work. Keep it up!
My dad was a pilot and we had our own plane for a while when I was growing up. One of the big rules was we stood well back from the aircraft quietly while dad was doing the pre-flight. If we shut down and left sight of the aircraft, it got pre-flighted again before we went on our way. He didn't trust refuelers either. He'd stick the tanks and make darn sure the caps were on properly (he found one loose on more than one occasion).
I had bought Papua New Guinea beans sometime, they are amazing, so much to get it down and bring it to market, it's a great deal and wish it to be more popular, the sweetness on them is so good. Seeing how a batch of green bean was transported with such care made me appreciate it a lot more.
Great to see the Caravan, I remember when they first appeared in Australia is the mid 80's. A show off model was sent to Bankstown Airport Sydney and the pilot quickly learned the forward visibility of the ground is very limited after he taxied it into a refueling bowser. It had a 3 bladed composite propeller, the blades looked like witches brooms.
I got my PNG coffee today and had to make a cup, Wow! Thanks Ryan. I always enjoy seeing your videos. Amazing scenery. I should be out diving sometime soon just a bit to the south in Indonesia. Last year’s diving trip was Palau. That’s also a spectacular place.
We just bought a Kodiak 900 and it gets delivered in November. I started training 2 weeks ago, I want to continue flying after I retire from British Airways in February
Another fantastic video Ryan. The experiences you have there in PNG are incredible and all while providing such needed service to the communities. I am always amazed at your professionalism and skill proficiency.
Wow, busy airstrip. I like the Cessna Caravan since I'm a Cessna guy. They are definitely a work horse. I'm still enjoying the coffee from PNG. Love it! Great flight video with IFR practice. Thanks & stay safe!
Thank you so much for putting this up, I now appreciate high elevation coffee even more and understood more of why they are expensive, not only because it is harder to grow, but they are grown on remote area that the most efficient transport mode is by plane.
Loved this flight. Would like for you to continue (audience preferences considered) any IFR flight videos you can provide. 20 Years ago I flew a Piper 28-161 from Laurel MD to Sao Paulo Brazil (& back) which was basically lots of IFR dead reconning, starting with initial fixes being low power NDB and an occasional VOR. I flew it at very low power settings and that's how I got the "legs" to get the distances. In that kind of flying, you really have to pay attention to everything.
GREAT Video,,,, that is the way we fly here in Mexico... I do fly a T207 and I would like to Fly a kodiak. I love coffee ...an Italian Expresso will be amazing brewed with that coffee. amazing views of the montains.. my best wishes and great weather 4U. Peter
Hi Ryan, That 'sinker on approach' looked exciting; but well caught. And yes, very happy with your content. Also, enjoying your 'on-the-ground' walkabouts. 🤠🙏🙏
That was a really engaging video. I enjoyed the mental play by play of decisions and adjustment engaging with the flight technology and seeing all the safety processes and data on the maps. Zero flight knowledge here, but enjoy watching and getting a view of the profession through your videos.
GREAT!! I really enjoy the DETAILS of the flight. Even the ones I know nothing about!! LOL I learn every time I watch your channel. Thanks for another wonderful video. Loved it.
Another great and interesting flight. I would enjoy more of the procedures. Maybe a 30 second chat with a local now and then. And particular things about your plane and how she flies better, like the wobble fix.👍👍
Another fine video Ryan - full of information and insight and as ever beautifully filmed and edited. I've finally got round to trying the RNAV-Y approach into Goroka. It took a lot of setting up given my simmulator's relatively simple GPS and autopilot arrangement, plus not being familiar with flying glideslopes I felt the need to do some do some basic mathematics to check the three percent descent rate. When executed it worked well enough but my autopilot/GPS seems better adapted to Dive and Drive rather than glideslope so for Goroka I'm still happy to use your Cloud Breaker procedure.
For those that don’t roast coffee, anybody can buy green coffee in the states for around $6 per pound. Each pound of green once roasted would sell for around $30, there is weight lost in roasting. I don’t do purchasing, but I would guess at this stage in its journey the coffee is only worth $2/pound at most.

@@MissionaryBushPilot It is baffling - on visits to central India on warm sultry evenings we'd be very comfortable wearing thin short sleeved tops in January yet would see locals wearing padded jackets! Never did decide if it was a fashion thing or they felt the "cold".
Was neat to see the processes and procedures for this flight. Half a century ago my Dad and Granddad were each pilots for a season or two of their lives; flying is both the same and different these days. 😄 Will go watch the village tour later this afternoon.

True professional that loves what he does it becomes instinct and part of your character. 😊
Hello from USA. Where is the source of the coffee and do they export large quantities? PRICE of roasted and green per tonnage? ❤
"coffee" lol
totally not some snow

Hello, yes I like the loading preparation.

Happy 49th Independence Papua New Guinea! Looking forward for the brighter days to come our way
Great Coffee Express Run ...
An Olde House Master Flew in PNG then joined NZ Civi Accident Section ...
Excellent video and yes on loading and or unloading ! Nice to see the villagers helping you .
Enjoyed the IFR practice run and the busy traffic at origin field. Take care Ryan.
These are great videos, Ryan. Praying for you, your family, and your missionary work!
Great video! I appreciate all of the communication and the visual queues along the way! 🙏
Great show once again. Very professional.
Great video as usual my friend... not sure how you cope with such stunning scenery... you work in heaven...
Love the IFR approach. Learn a lot from the breakdown of decision making. This helps, even outside of aviation.
Great job. Ultra pro in very challenging conditions. Best flying school ever....!and pilot. Bravo and keep safe.
Missionaries go to where the Lord sends them and sure they take their family with them. No big deal for them but some people don’t understand it
Thanks a lot!
Good morning from Minnesota USA! Great episode!
Wow all what you and college are doing in this business is great to see. Thanks for showing, JR.
Again it was FUN flying with you!
That's a good view of your life on the ground and a good IFR landing lesson. That helps me with my Simulator. Thank you , good say 😊
I got my PNG coffee today and had to make a cup, Wow! Thanks Ryan. I always enjoy seeing your videos. Amazing scenery. I should be out diving sometime soon just a bit to the south in Indonesia. Last year’s diving trip was Palau. That’s also a spectacular place.
what kind of coffee is it?
Excellent drone work, with that landing plane. 😍
Wow, I would fly with you anywhere, anytime! Thanks for the ride, terrific explanation of working with the aircraft when, why, apply!
Absolutely perfect video…loved the approach..keep doing what you’re doing…old 707 driver.
Great video thanks Ryan! Yes, more behind the scenes and logistics please!! 👍🏻💪🏻🙏🏻

Yes, love the behind the scenes videos.
I did enjoy seeing the locals loading the coffee. Any interaction with the locals is always interesting.
I love the behind the seens. I'd watch an hour long video of seeing what all you do in a day. Of course, a lot work for you to put that together.
Thank you so much for putting this up, I now appreciate high elevation coffee even more and understood more of why they are expensive, not only because it is harder to grow, but they are grown on remote area that the most efficient transport mode is by plane.
Good video Ryan. Greetings from central Texas (1T7). Love starting my Sundays watching your weekly video.
Thanks Ryan. Always enjoy
Enjoyed the weight and balance considerations and your Instrument approach thoughts. Great video! Thank you!

Sounds like an adventure
Great video. Would be neat to see some coffee processing in the future..
Keep up the good work!
It was really busy for you in this video for you it was good to see something different this time.
Thank!! From Cuba 🇨🇺🇨🇺🇨🇺
Another stunning PNG video, awesome work Ryan😊
Loved this and the previous video. Love the details. :)
Hello captain, We want to see more behind the scenes for sure 💯✈️.
beautiful video.. well done again. Glad to see God has blessed you with and amazing office!
That was a smooth landing
Good flight as usual Mr.Ryan. Greeting from Vietnam
Thank you Ryan haven’t watched you for a bit but I do enjoy your logs sorry I Santa able too visit while you was stateside God bless you brother
Hi Ryan
Great video
Beautiful scenery from the kodiak windows on the mountains & meanders
Thanks for sharing
Stay safe
👍🛫
Great ride- thank you. Love hearing your thought processes as you plan ahead for the various oars of the flight. Great tool that buddy box.
GREAT Video,,,, that is the way we fly here in Mexico... I do fly a T207 and I would like to Fly a kodiak.
I love coffee ...an Italian Expresso will be amazing brewed with that coffee.
amazing views of the montains..
my best wishes and great weather 4U.

I could watch these vids all day, you're attention to detail is epic
Let's do one on driving a car around locally?? 🤣😂😅
Hi Ryan,
That 'sinker on approach' looked exciting; but well caught.
And yes, very happy with your content. Also, enjoying your 'on-the-ground' walkabouts. 🤠🙏🙏
A weak autopilot? Again, I learned something new! Also, really cool drone shot of the MAF landing!
Hello from north Carolina
Man, that's basically a pallet of Gold at $10 a lb. at local grocery self serve bag your own.
Cheers
Hey can we get a Garoka tour someday? Really appreciate your effort on these vids! They're incredibly entertaining and informative!
Coming soon on my new second channel
@@MissionaryBushPilot nice!!! So excited for that
I love your content and also love the Timelapse you do at the end of your videos ❤ keep it up 👍
Wonderful !
That was a really engaging video. I enjoyed the mental play by play of decisions and adjustment engaging with the flight technology and seeing all the safety processes and data on the maps. Zero flight knowledge here, but enjoy watching and getting a view of the profession through your videos.
Tremendous video. Thanks. 🇺🇸🍀🇺🇸
Thank you! I've always wanted to look at the comparisons between the Kodiak and the 208 because I thought they're the same aircraft.
GREAT!! I really enjoy the DETAILS of the flight. Even the ones I know nothing about!! LOL I learn every time I watch your channel. Thanks for another wonderful video. Loved it.
God bless you for helping the people
LOVED IT
That was great!

Sept 16th 2024 -- 49 years of Independence -- shout out to Papua New Guinea
Loved the content, that PNG coffee is good stuff………Roger
Hi Ryan
How about a tour of the village. The people look like a happy group of friends. I trust you get a good price for the coffee
I did one here just 2 weeks ago.
Great job captain. Your editing skills are top notch. If you,ever need a safety pilot fly up to Hartford, CT and pick me up. 😂
Sad you only sell coffee beans to US. I live in europe and loooove coffee
I am sure it must have smelled great inside the plane!
It hasn't been cooked yet, so it doesn't smell like a cup of coffee
the Garmin interface has a remarkable resemblance to Starfox on the SNES.
Enjoyed the flight.
Having an Airshow there mate….🤣
Ryan, how about letting us meet other missionaries and a few of your fellow aviators & ATC folk if they are willing?
Fun video to watch thanks Ryan 😄
just wow!
how is such small village able to produce so much coffee quickly
You know, there's a couple of C130s for sale in Houston. Just get that Patreon income flowing harder.
I hope you get a good price on JetA. That can't be cheap hauling coffee beans for the locals.
Great stuff :)
Wow the community got an air show on this gorgeous day. Would it be unusual to have three aircraft at the same time?
Not very often do 3 aircraft show up at the same time to any bush location in PNG
Good. Thanks.

Can you feature the ATC on one of your vids he’s got such a chilled vibe to him
Damn you're a baddie 👏🏼😊
Brilliant safe flying - G-BBKZ
I don’t remember ever hearing you setting the altimeter. Is there a standard pressure or how do you set it? Field elevation?
Did I see someone loading your plane wearing a PARKA??? That is CRAZY!!!
it confuses me too!
@@MissionaryBushPilot It is baffling - on visits to central India on warm sultry evenings we'd be very comfortable wearing thin short sleeved tops in January yet would see locals wearing padded jackets! Never did decide if it was a fashion thing or they felt the "cold".
Holy cow! Who didn't need to fly in & out there? 🤭
Hot, humid, heavy...yeah I can see why the plane didn't exactly jump into the air. 😉
I want to see it all
Was neat to see the processes and procedures for this flight. Half a century ago my Dad and Granddad were each pilots for a season or two of their lives; flying is both the same and different these days. 😄 Will go watch the village tour later this afternoon.
HIIII
Proud to be your Brother in Christ !
hey Ryan i do a lot of riding here in the Prescott national forest which is awesome, when are we going to see videos of the trails in PNG?
When I finish fixing my motorcycle engine. Waiting on parts
Man, I'd love to order some of the coffee you guys offer, but the shipping being 3x the cost of a bag is crazy.
