On May 4, 2001, JetFlix TV videographer Chris Mak was in the propliner Mecca of Villavicencio Colombia and tagged along for a resupply flight to Mitu on the AEROSOL Colombia DC-6 HK-1400.

This was an amazing flight experience from start to end, as he able to film to his heat’s content. They even removed the emergency windows inflight and during take-off so he could get excellent video capture without the nuisance of filming through foggy and scratched windows.

Once at Mitu he filmed the aircraft turn around process, along with the seemingly public access apron, albeit under the careful watch of machine gun armed commandos that were encamped at the airfield providing security. Special thanks to Chris Mak for filming and sharing this amazing video! We think you will agree, this is one of the better up close and personal DC-6 action films that one is likely to see.
