  • My flight instructor back when I was a kid in the Cadet Civil Air Patrol (Polaris Group,Anchorage Alaska) was a pilot with Reeve's. Holly Cow! Was he ever a task master! He never let me forget that flying an aircraft meant that EVERY decision you made while in control of that aircraft could mean life or death for EVERY soul on board. And that flying in the Alaskan environment added to the responsibility because there few were more challenging places on the planet to fly!

  • Its too bad that reeve went under.

  • Awesomely powerful take off...from a postage stamp sized runway! the L188's forte.

  • essa decolagem é muito excitante!!! this take off is very excitant!!!

  • Sure wish I had the chance to fly on such a great bird.

  • Sure did bring back some memorys, grew up in that town. Watched some fun landings by Reeves, one time they bounced that plane down the runway over correcting one bounce on the right side to a bounce on the left, wicked cross winds.

  • The L188 is one fine aircraft,a real work horse.I worked at Eastern for 21 years,got to ride jump seat on L188 a couple of times.--------Outstanding!

  • Love the sound of this craft! The L188s were pulled out of service here in NZ around 1974, ufortuantely way before my time. :(
