Shalom and greetings all my pals,
All of you might remember Flying Wild Alaska tv show featuring Jim Tweto, his wife, and his two daughters as well as his airline Era Airline.
During early years of Tweto family when their two daughters were babies, presenting Era flight many moon years ago from PAUN Unalakleet Airport located one nautical mile north of the central business district of Unalakleet, Alaska to PAOM Nome Airport located two nautical miles west of the central business district of Nome, of Alaska.
At gate waiting to be boarded
Yes it is FREEZING COLD at the gate!!!
Starting engines
Starting to taxi to short of runway 14 where you can see in background Jim Tweto's famous red plane and ERA's famous green building. If you can see the pickup truck next to the green building, that is the same truck that a rookie pilot would later accidentally wrecks the driver's door not realizing the winds would be too strong enough to wreck it when opening it!!
Taxiing to short of runway 14
Holding short on runway 14
Spooling engines to warm them before starting take off
Take off!!!
Airborne retracting landing gear while starting climb to FL140
Nice view of the airport
Powering to climb to FL140
You can see whole airport where the Tweto family works!!!! Look at the famous red plane and Era building!!
Climbing
Turning right toward west with background view of clean icy waters of Norton Sound
Cruising at FL140
Crossing Norton Sound
If you have sharp eyes, you can see Nome airport!!!
Wing view of Nome airport
On final runway approach to runway 10
A passenger straining his neck to have nice view of left engine and runway!!
Still on final approach
Seconds before touchdown!!
TOUCHDOWN!!!
You think it is easy to brake down on very icy runway???
Exiting from runway into taxiway toward gate
Thank you for viewing!! Stay tuned for next flight!!!!
Regards,
Aharon
