I was a passenger in a Greenland Air DC-6 in Greenland in 1971. They also flew DC-4s back then which were unpressurized.

Who gave that pilot his last BFR? That is when bad habits need to be corrected.

I was a passenger on an Air Force HU16 that flew from BGSF to BGBW in 1971. That was an amazing experience!

Frank, Some airports have ramps and hangers on both sides of a runway. Occationally a tug needs to tow an airplane from one side to the other. At controlled fields the ground controller keeps everyone safe. At uncontrolled fields everyone involved has to announce their intentions on the CTAF and look both ways. Obviously the tug/truck driver didn't hear or see the departing aircraft.
