Really nice tour, Ryan. Love the ground walks, meeting the people and hearing the languages. Thank you!

[benbiagioni]

It's a good thing that you are around for the community there. Your skill is immeasurable.

[markbarrett]

The airstrip definitely has a lot of standing water. I enjoy seeing the cloud layers in the PNG mountains. Awesome video again, thank you Ryan

[kingfisch]

Great flight! Definitely not for the faint hearted. Good training to know when to abort the landing. Thanks for sharing! 🙏

[julianwelz]

I'm drawing my hat, that's airmanship in a perfect way. God bless you Ryan

[FPVMike]

love that you're still making videos mate. my 9 year olds and myself love watching you fly over the jungles. A real adventure each time

[kevchilton]

I love listening to your decision making, so accomplished and professional. Every video is amazing to view 👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[kennethperian]

Never a dull moment keeps the brain ticking

[garethcroson]

I love your videos. You never fail to impress with your flying skills and knowledge.

My uncle Werner once slid off the end of a runway after a rainfall. Somewhere I have a picture of the plane sitting at an angle. The people in the village managed to push it back up the hill.

[challengerultralightadventure]

That will be one dirty bird after that flight. Cheers from Winnipeg.

Nice video, thx for the window into the uncertain/challenging terrain and weather you have to deal with. When the original plan didnt work out you made decisions based on current observations. You know the limits and seemed willing to abort if unsafe.

[billferrol]

I've been watching your videos for a while now. As part of my responsibilities as a military pilot of 37 years experience I was a human factors and CRM instructor/examiner so this particular flight caught my attention for several reasons.
1. I haven't been there for two years.
2. I thought I was going to slide off the end last time.
3. The weather is perfect
4. At time 12:15 you acknowledged the weather wasn’t as expected and you had to change the plan to get into the strip. However, that said that at time 12:19 you stated” I always do”
Having lost friends to overconfidence combined with complacency your comments had the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. I know you are a very capable operator Ryan so please take my concerns on today's flight the way they are meant, a self check every now and then to keep you safe. God speed and continue doing a fantastic job.

[TarasZpilot]

Another exciting landing! Reminds me of landing my Cardinal at Falwell Airport in Lynchburg VA. It has a significant ski slope runway thats paved, but still a thrill landing uphill & keeping enough momentum to arrive at the top! Not as challenging as your strip though. Nice job!

[skyepilotte]

Great approach and landing.
Thx Ryan

[emylrmm]

a white knuckle flight that Ryan made look easy

[ambassadorlight]

You gave it 2 go arounds to ensure your safe landing. Nicely done! 💖🌞👑✝️😃

[nofider]

Cheers Ryan, Another great flight. :-)

[stevekirk]

A wonderful display of calm, controlled circuit flying at Malamaunda combined with excellent decision making regarding the conditions. When you entered the circuit the low cloud in all the valleys looked very discouraging but your years of cloud craft prevailed for an impressive landing. That short final is really quite tricky - that little ridge as you turn onto centre line I find quite disruptive - I think your approach is a little higher than mine but the your skills are always going to make things look easier! On top of that I find Malamaunda airstrip difficult to spot as you fly around it. Another fascinating video - thanks Ryan.
