Glass cockpit in a Beaver? Never seen that before.

[PacificTreasureHunt]

Cool video. Nice to see you flying again.. Its been a while..

[TheAvigdor]

is perfect films ! tenks

[pdxflyerZ]

Cool - nothing better than combining planes with water

[ggarl12]

very nice video, nice landing too

[martind287]

It is an ocean harbor. It is protected by a barrier island which makes it idea as a port. did you know there are no roads leading to Juneau even though it is on the mainland.

@martind287 Fantastic video. Thank you very much. I can't see anything wrong with the camera!??! We've done the Inside Passage cruise three times now with Holland America lines. The last ship you pass in the video is a HAL liner ... possibly the same one we went on last time. Thanks again ... love Juneau.

[PSNgregiskool]

@martind287 So the only way in is by boat or aircraft? hmm... sounds like some good opportunity to make some money, open up a little seaplane charter/ boat rental company.... $

[applesweeter]

Is here a ocean habour or a river?

There are so many cruise ships.

[N8229Y]

That is just awesome--beautiful scenery up there, too!

[commandrinchief]

Very very cool

[dueliux14]

very beautiful,but you must get better camera

[martind287]

@dueliux14 how about you loan me the money for a better one? very sorry should never have even bothered

[martind287]

@martind287 i got a new camera now. how do you go back in time to re-film this?

[madisonelectronic]

@dueliux14 He probably owns the Beaver, which is better than any camera.

[raginh8r]

@dueliux14 He posted video of something not very many people get to see and you're bitching about his camera?

[littlelarryrules]

Great video!

I was on the celebrity ship during this video, ironic..

[Dantallus99]

There are hundreds of Beavers in operation in Alaska. Great airplane

[mercador1001]

O Melhor pouso que ja vi!! cogratulations fron Brazil.

[martind287]

French Valley must be French . Maybe he can't read English. Just like me being on a sightseeing flight in Juneau Alaska - he thinks I must be a foreigner. All makes perfect sense. Guess you have to be American to understand according to him. Oh wait a minute. I am ,and its my video and i wrote the comment that makes perfect sense that started him down the path of stupidity. Now thats a real LOL.

[martind287]

French valley is obviously a tool.

[82648947]

He is clearly a failed product of the US education system..

[FrenchValleyAirport]

how would this plane kill 5 people, seems so harmless lol

[martind287]

read... the same TYPE of plane in which 5 people were killed.

[FrenchValleyAirport]

obviously i did read thats how i knew it killed 5 people you idiot.

[martind287]

why would you" LOL" at 5 people dying? moron

[FrenchValleyAirport]

i loled at the plane for killing 5 ppl u dumbass obviously ur not american and u dont understand what im saying

[pesesaru]

@martind287 Did they die in the landing or in what manner?

[martind287]

@pesesaru

from my recollection they all died. they hit a mountain in low visability.

[whinyunderscore]

nice little Canadian made plane.

[MatanuskaMafia]

Great video, gotta love the first-person perspective on this.

[yevgeni2905]

Is there an autopilot in this DHC-2?

[martind287]

you would have to ask the pilot Mike. we were just dumb tourists. I know nothing about the plane. He is with Wings Airways in Juneau Ak.

[yevgeni2905]

ok thenks anyway

[100Yottabytes]

no. they were introduced in 1948 and they stopped making them in 1967.

[SupermanCarter13]
