Well, I just watched the pilot episode, and I was slightly disappointed with it. I was hoping for more bush flying and less canned/scripted drama.

Anyways, the series looks like it will be pretty interesting though. It goes into how the remote areas of Alaska get supplied by air, and the family run airline (Era Alaska) that supplies them.

Here's a route map of their scheduled flights. They also run a charter service that will take you anywhere where you can land a Cessna 180.

That is one things I hate about so many reality type shows all the obviously scripted dialog

Yeah, you'd think that there would be enough genuine drama to make a show like that interesting, but they have to add in obvious fake dilemas to "spice things up".

That's not Alaska! Someone go to the back of the scene and kick down the background... yep! It's all staged! :wanker:

Duke, if you kept your mouth shut, people would merely suspect that you're stupid, but then you open your mouth and remove all doubt. :duh:
