Flying Wild Alaska

The last frontier of Alaska. With such vast wilderness and spaces, flying by plane is the best or only way to go. That's where the bush pilots come in. Watching the Tweeto family run Era Alaska is equally entertaining as watching the McBryan family run Buffalo Airways (another show, Ice Pilots, that I've also grown fond of). These are hard-working people and the commitment they bring to the business is admirable. While Jim Tweeto and Buffalo Joe are opposites when it comes to general demeanor, they both are hands-on owners and true examples of blue collar leadership.
