In chapter two, the weather gets in the way of our plans and grounds us on a mountain overnight. We then find ourselves stuck on a rock in the middle of nowhere for 24 HOURS due to poor visibility. A major headwind has us questioning our ability to make it to our destination before running out of fuel.
We took a MASSIVE cross country helicopter trip in August where we flew our helicopter, the Millennial Falcon, back to our Canadian home province Newfoundland and Labrador. We will be releasing episodes of Cold Island, A Helicopter Travel Series every Sunday and Wednesday until Nov 13th! This is our largest video project (and helicopter trip) to date. Hope you enjoy it!

This series makes me realize that having a helicopter is one of the best filmmaking tools ever...I wonder if B&H has any in stock ?

As someone with an ultrawide monitor, you have no idea how much I appreciate real 21:9 aspect ratio instead of shitty black bars added on top of the footage <3

"Really excited for my first time camping, this is kind of in tents"-- Chris, 2019. Easily the best part of the video lol

Fellow helicopter pilot here. Nice job being well prepared, making safe choices and having a backup plan for every contingency. I've never had to camp out, but I have set the helicopter down in a random field to let a storm pass. There's nothing like a long long cross country flight in a helicopter. It's always a learning experience. Play it safe and live to fly another day! Thanks for sharing.

This series just keeps getting better and better. I stopped editing to watch this. I dont stop editing for ANYTHING.

Becki and Chris (70 Year’s old): Remember that time we got stranded on a rock and ate noodles and killed mosquitoes for two days? Those were good times. Scary as hell... but good times.

Becki, I know you are the one editing this. You should be so damn proud of this project. Seriously. So f’ing thought out. Everything from storyline, to visuals to music is 12/10. Cant wait for the next!

Holy CRAP!!! Chewed my fingernails to the NUB!! The story was awesome but, Becki, the filming, editing and story telling are amazing!! I want to binge the whole season!! So glad you guys made it - so far - and this is a terribly exciting story! Also - so glad that Chris is a thoughtful and deliberate pilot. This is as educational as it is informative! WOW! Great drone flying also - seeing the chopper from all those angles is so neat!! Can. Not. Wait.

I can only imagine the feeling of waking up and seeing the weather is still just as bad! Wow.

This is honestly some of my favorite stuff you two have done. Seriously, major props to how this was orchestrated, presented, structured.. another redundant word. I foolishly watched these backwards.. but I'm so pleased. I get that trips like these are hectic and honestly unpredictable; but the way this was planned and presented (as you're already teasing footage even in the first video just introducing the idea of the trip) was done SO well. That, and amidst the chaos of landing on rocks in dense fog, private property ski resorts, you still captured things in a way that present the scenarios, in (dare I say) a cinematic way, and kept up with the pacing while keeping information flowing. Not once was I bored. If this were an hour long, edited the way it was, I would've still been glued. Nonetheless, looking forward to more.

Many decades ago, my flight instructor taught me his favorite pilot agage: "If time's no care, go by air." I'm enjoying your evidence of that.

Traveling in bad weather 101! :) On the bright side, you guys discover and spent time at places others may start going to now after watching these videos. Very exciting journey and I am glad you two decided to bring us all with you on it.

I grew up in the Sept Isle-ish area. Do not miss the flies. It is truly a remote and desolate spot. Even today with modern aviation it's costs a bloody fortune just to get there from Alberta. Loving the series.
