That "Clear" shout just doesn't get old, laugh every time.

Beautiful area to fly! Two thumbs up!

Early in my flying experience I tried to land at Quartz Creek in my C150. The winds there are really weird and I did the exact same approach. The x-wind on final turned to a tailwind on short final as the wind made the corner up the valley. I found myself fast and high with all the flaps out. I went to do a go-around and nearly didn't make it over the trees, and then had to deal with the rising terrain. I learned a lot that day, mainly that you should always consider your options if a go-around becomes necessary. I usually land the other way now, towards the lake, to give myself more room to climb. Unless it is a strong wind towards the lake, but with the windsock tucked down below the trees, it's hard to tell what the wind is actually doing.

“When are people going to get sick of footage of glaciers.” Never. I’ll never get tired of any of this footage.

Went to Talkeetna today and back to Palmer, less smoky today. Can’t get used to the long days, lol, need a cave to crawl in to get deep sleep. Thanks for sharing as always!

Really humbling to see you still learning things with more than 1000tt in GA and sharing the process with all of us.

I had a flight instructor years ago who was an avid golfer. He used to yell, "FORE!" Cracked me up every time...

Awesome video Josh! I passed my commercial and instrument checkrides this weekend!

Well I’m on 18 hrs of private pilot training and still struggling with landings in wind.. I’m not saying I’m happy that you misjudged your approach, but happy to see it could happen to a season pilot like yourself.. I learn so much off your videos..( it’s the little things) that help me out recognizing situations!! Thank you for a great video..

Even though I've lived here my whole life, you don't get to see this beauty every day. I'm so excited that you did this awesome adventure to Alaska and getting this great footage.

I'm imagining packing up a tent, sleeping bag, foods and friends and a couple days of pure nature and campfire fitted into that airplane. Gonna get my license before i die. Swear.

I landed at quartz creek back in 2012 with my grandson. Flew there from LL22 in Illinois all the way up the Alaska byway. Great gravel strip and a good week of salmon fishing. Fond memory.

Hey man, I work at Talkeetna Flight Service and talked to you guys on the way out of TKA on your way up to Nenana. Great video series! Loved the drone footage at Don’s place in part one.

Chris Palmer... "Throttle On!" is no longer your thing... It's CLEEEAAAAARRRR! (in my best pirate voice) lol!!

We're our own worst critic when talking about our own landings. I also tend to come in a little high and fast for the same reasons you did when the wind is jumpy. Chris was so calm while offering little hints to help you along. You compared the landing to an airport in central Texas. Lago Vista perhaps ?

Dude, I'm about to start training and all your videos are very comfortable proof that safe flying exists and is very doable. Thanks mate!

The iridescence of that river is incredible. What views, Josh! Great stuff.

Wow absolutely love those glaciers.

Some good glacier footage. You put this together beautifully with your editing. Thanks for sharing.

This should be a tv series! It is awesome. It is my dream to fly around Alaska one day

One of the reasons Paragliding training gives you excellent skills in reading Ridge Lift. Very Nice, Very Nice

What I found awesome about this video...You, Josh, admitting to making mistakes having some doubt and learning from them. That is what we should all do. I feel you are a very accomplished pilot, even more so now. Great Vlog, looking forward to the rest of this expedition! Thanks!

I more impressed @20:00 full flap retraction in less than a second????!!!!??? In a 172 I'm used to hearing that motor grind for a good 10 seconds.

I haven't seen Josh think that much during a landing since Chicago O'hare. Way to push through and count on your skills as a pilot. Those clouds, mountains and winds had to make it hard to get a feel of the aircraft. Great Job !!!

I can't wait to start flight school in September. Keeping me excited here Josh!

You have definitely raised your videography skills to the next level. This is as good as as Smithsonian! Great job.

Not only was that runway forgiving, but your friend was very forgiving of your flying on final. Nice job Josh. I bet it feels good to fly in Alaska and take off those training wheels lol. Very unforgiving terrain. You did well.

Moving to alaska from Colorado in 7 days!! So stoked to get up there and do this. Doing my instrument and commercial up in anchorage at UAA

Three years later and we’re still not getting tired of the glaciers. Love when you guys get together.

I can't talk for others but I love to see all the things shown of the things on the ground. I love the flying and the things that can be seen. I can't fly myself so I watch videos of the ones that can and video it. THANK YOU FOR THE WORK YOU DO TO LET ME SEE WHAT I COULD NOT SEE WITHOUT YOUR VIDEOS!

love you Josh...have fun! when you were landing I was like OMG to much but you did it and acknowledged it.

“...any landing you can walk away from...” Great video! Always learning; no doubt a very unique, and challenging aviation environment. 😎👍

Awesome Josh, quartz creek is a fun one to land at, most definitely different than your Texas asphalt strips... :-)

“He’ll be back to pick us up tomorrow” **Alaskan weather has entered the chat** Beautifully filmed and nice flying! Thanks so much for sharing these, really enjoying going through the whole AK series

that water analogy was really insightful.

I can never get enough of Chris's 'CLEAR!'

Boyz... Absolutely loving this series! In part because of watching you two, I am getting my PPL, should be done in about 3 weeks. Also, was in AK last fall and loved it. Keep doing what you do, absolutely fantastic. Can't wait to go up and fly AK. Chris, you may be hearing from me!

Josh you nailed it!

Absolutely gorgeous! Thanks Josh!

I was so nervous, just watching. I had to keep reminding myself that you must have survived ok, since you posted the video. Fantastic scenery too.

What an awesome series! So glad we get to experience this vicariously :) keep em coming!

Another great wonderful video. Great Job josh.

Yet another amazing video, Josh! Flying in Alaska is beautiful and the way you capture it is even more so. Thanks!

Typical awesome! Looking forward to next Monday!

You inspired me into flying

Really good video,you can see how pilots get into trouble so close to that terrain in bad weather,excellent instructor with sound advice.

Great content, fun watching you two together. Can’t wait for part 4 and 5.

One of your best videos!! Thanks for sharing it!!

One of the things I really like about your vids is your explanations. You cover a lot of info, and you are fast to point out your mistakes instead of glossing over them, or not mentioning them at all. One part of learning and improving on our abilities is facing our mistakes, owning them, and finding the grain of knowledge to help us improve and avoid the same in the future. I think you do that quite well.

Crazy Place!!! Beautiful!!!

Once again Josh, your videos are beyond compare. Thanks for allowing all of us non active pilots to relive the most enjoyable pastime in the world. I thank you!

Great Video and experience for all! Thanks

I’m enjoying watching these episodes and seeing the scenery but I have no desire to fly there in that kind of situation myself.

Unreal video work. Great job and thanks for taking us along. CLEAR!

Great video, spectacular scenery, Chris is so lucky to have that as a back yard so to speak.

Great video Josh! Wonderful adventure, wish I could join you! Keep it up, and the planes too!!!

Awesome video Sir! Thanks again for being a solid content creator. Thank you to the gentleman in the right seat as well. It was cool as hell that you nailed the soft field landing but still pushed yourself to do it better the next time around.

Amazing scenery great video.

Another great video!!!!

Amazing video Josh. Keep going. I will Be waiting for the next one. Greets from México.

This is your best series yet!

Love how you guys are so humble in teaching each other

Amazing video thanks:) breathtaking views and interesting mountain flying experience:)

Beautiful work, as usual, Josh. Your videos inspire me to pursue my lifelong dream of becoming a pilot and recent developments at my current job mean that it may be possible sooner than I anticipated. Keep up the good work.

Well done Josh! Awesome landing! Greetings from the Italian Alps. We also have bizzare wind conditions here.

Great flight!

Great video, as always! Alaska is such a gorgeous place! Keep up the awesome work! =)

i feel like after an experience like this, life is complete, its just so beautiful. thanks for making the series, great job

Great job showing the conditions up north and showing the great looking country side. Still like living in Texas.

Another one of your awesome videos Josh

Amazing flying!!!

I love this series soooo much!!

Sensational. This is a very different type of flying than we are used to seeing. Really interesting.

Unbelievably awesome

so good! Feel like I'm on the adventure with you all.

Beautiful video.

Great scenery, you did make me a little nervous on final to touch down, airplane wanted to keep on flying. Great job!!!

Enjoyed, good stuff.

Think I would have hopped out of the airplane with the seat attached to my rear. Never flown an approach like that either. Good stuff.

His "Clear!", like a Rebel yell.

Coming from Colorado, I can def say that this video starts to show how tricky and scary mountain flying can be at times! Luckily it looks like they had density altitude on their side this time though!

Way cool thanks for sharing

No! I'm great full to get to see Alaska! Even this way! It's real without Bias!

Amazing views!

Cleeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love the soundtrack

Amazing series.....

Excellent

Great vid!

Can’t wait for the next part. I also passed my ppl checkride the other day 😁😁

Dude! living the dream; and you were to hard on yourself with that landing and approach it looked good 👍 👌

Chris - You look soooo tired, so squinty-eyed. Hilarious! Gotta love those long Alaska summer days.

What drone do you use? Awesome videos man. Not sure which I like more compared to the Sedona/Grand Canyon videos. Also, thanks for tuning me into Angle of Attack’s channel!

Meh you seen one glacier you Senn em all Kidding great footage Josh keep it coming

I made that " CCCLLLEEEAAARR !!! " into my phone's ringtone. It clears the room every time.

Beautiful flight! Thanks Josh! Don :-)

Magnificent!!

I love the long videos!

So good.

Wow....Just WoW!!!
