Just watched an episode of Flying Wild Alaska on TV with ERA and the Tweeto family.

I love the shots of pilots smashing the controls in all different directions due to "40 to 50 mile per hour winds" at this and that small airstrip... then they shoot the supposedly same landing from the ground with snow flakes dropping straight down, no winds whatsoever

.

High entertainment value, realism value yet to be determined

Thats my favorite show on discovery. Sadly, its not in the air in my country for now

I watch the "TWEETO" family every Friday nite! Do I watch it for the flying or what the crazy Tweeto girls are doing??? Tough choice!

Then there's the Crazy ICE PILOTS who seem to screw up their C-47s every week! Sure beats ICE ROAD TRUCKERS!

Yah, it's a good show, and unlike most reality shows the people on it aren't trailer trash.

Also the Cessna 208 sounding like a piston engine 207 on take off.

Yeah - nice to see a family that actually seems to enjoy each others company - pretty refreshing in this day and age... I've got parts of a dead seal fermenting in a hole in the backyard so I can enjoy it during the next show - umm - err - too much ???
