Flying the Brooks Fuel Douglas DC-4

Details

In this show we join aviation videographer Chris Mak for a flight with Brooks Fuels and one of their fabulous DC-4 propliners, from Fairbanks to Tanana Ralph M Calhoun Memorial Airport with fuel, and empty back to Fairbanks. The video starts with the ground prep of the aircraft in Fairbanks followed by a lengthy engine start and engine warm up, followed by a taxi and impressive low and heavy departure. Once at Tanana the aircraft is carefully unloaded of its precious cargo, before the crew takes the grand old girl back to home base at Fairbanks.
