  1. Thanks for watching! I will try my best. The next few are just from my holiday. I will start again when the flying starts again:)
  2. That was a nice quick day! the normal days are around 6 hrs:)
  3. We got to see it from the air:)
  4. The shortest strip we land at from Manokwari, Papua!
  5. John, here is a bit more weather for you. Not the big CBs though.
  6. Hi John, I'll try get some for you;) thanks! Mike
  7. Hi John, We try not to, but sometimes it is unavoidable. Yeah, there is also just not much to see then;) Thanks for watching!
  8. Took them for a spin! No flying
  9. They are huge here! hope you enjoy!
  10. Thanks David, yeah was not fun. It is only now starting to heal properly and it is almost 3 weeks later. Mike
  11. Not while flying. Hope you enjoy, sorry for the break!
  12. Hi David, We didn't actually find anything in the cave, we searched all over with cellphone torch:) they had a few interesting things out side, but that was it. I can imagine there must be so many things to find, in the sea and the forest. I will definitely do that. It would be amazing to stumble apon a zero or something of the sort. Off to Raja Ampat for diving for the next week. Maybe will find something there;) Otherwise no uploads for the next week. Unfortunately won't have any signal or wifi. Cheers, Mike
  13. Just exploring the island. No flying
  14. Thanks so much! Yeah, I am not really excited by the airlines. Hope you enjoy this next one!
  15. Hi, there is a bit of competition, but not as much as you would think. A lot of guys like the multicrew environment and prefer to stay in the cities.. I am not one of those people;) Most guys around are just here to get some hours to head into airlines and the Caravan is better suited to them then. We are having quite a lot of movement in the company as well. I hope and possibly should be looking at getting onto the Porter within a year if all goes to plan. Cheers, Mike
  16. Hi David, We actually normally get quite a lot a variation. We normally only stay in one base for a month at a time and then move to another part of Indonesia. So far in the 7 months I have been here I have been based in 7 different bases. The flying is always different even though we do the same routes and therefore keeps it pretty fun. However I can imagine once I am permanently based somewhere it may get a little boring. I am looking at going onto the Porter as soon as possible, so that should keep it interesting! Cheers, Mike
  17. Hi David:) Yes, it is a very stressful job, but someone has to do it;) Thank you so much! I plan to enjoy it for many years to come:) Hope you enjoy the next one!
  18. No flying in this one. Just a view into the life of an Indo pilot.:)
