Daniel Holman is one of the most respected names in RC aerobatics. In the early 2010s, his freestyle routines blended musicality, precision, and smooth, high-speed lines—helping push the sport into a new era of extreme aerobatics. As a long-time team pilot for Extreme Flight, Daniel became known for his graceful yet aggressive flying style and for pushing aircraft to their limits in top-tier competitions.After a decade-long break from RC, Daniel is back—flying again from his home in Alaska, where he now works as a commercial pilot. From flying King Airs across remote villages to landing his personal Cessna 180 on gravel bars in the middle of nowhere, his day job takes aviation to the edge of what's possible.In this episode, Daniel shares stories from both worlds—RC and full-scale—including insights on freestyle design, lessons from flying in extreme conditions, and what it's like to rediscover the hobby after years away.Whether you're into 3D, precision flying, or full-scale bush aviation, this one's a must-listen.

When a downdraft flipped his Super Cub in the middle of the Andes, Que Que Parodi spent 27 hours stranded in a snowstorm—alone, underdressed, and fighting to survive. That's just one of the wild stories in this episode of Coffee and a Hanger.Que Que describes the moment he stumbled upon a video about bush pilots in Alaska. Watching Paul Claus fly a Super Cub through remote Alaskan wilderness inspired him. This was what he was meant to do.Que Que is the founder of Patagonia Bush Pilots, a rapidly growing backcountry flight school in Argentina. With only six years of flying under his belt, he's built a fully certified operation: a cargo and taxi business, a licensed flight school, and a repair station—all from scratch. But Que Que's story starts way before aviation, as a professional snowboarder filming in active volcanic craters, building custom drones for forest fire surveillance, and hustling his way into aviation by pure grit and innovation.This episode is an incredible ride—raw, inspiring, and packed with bush flying spirit. Don't miss it.

Craig's story from 1983 involves strange noises, sightings of large black figures, and an escalating sense of danger which ultimately led him to flee in his Piper Cub. Daniel's tale, from the late 1970s, describes a harrowing experience with rock-throwing creatures and an aggressive encounter at their campsite, resulting in a night of terror and the firing of multiple shots to defend themselves. Both pilots' testimonies offer a rare glimpse into paranormal happenings in the Alaskan wilderness.Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteSupport Our SponsorsVisit Untold Radio AMVisit HIMS.COM00:00 Introduction and Setting the Scene 00:03 Craig's Encounter Begins 04:20 The Mysterious Sounds 06:57 The Bigfoot Sighting 09:03 Escape and Aftermath 18:44 Daniel's Story Introduction 22:25 Daniel and Christopher's Encounter 32:22 The Night of Terror 38:39 The Final Escape 41:31 Conclusion and ReflectionsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

This is the first of a series of podcasts centered on the theme of bush pilots flying around Africa. I begin with my own story of becoming a pilot and hope this is inspirational for anyone tempted to take to the skies.  Africa from the air is a journey in itself. Whether you are in command or a passenger on safari, being up there, looking down on elephants, bamboo forests, waterfalls or pastoralists and their herds - and  getting from A to B easily and safely -  is the making of indelible moments. Enjoy! www.tintrunksafari.com Instagram: @tintrunksafari

Checking in with Pilot Brian Otieno Born and raised in Kenya  Topics in this Mental Power Podcast episode: How Brian became a Bush-Pilot and flys nowadays for Dropzones in Europe Could you describe the mentality of a pilot? Why is confidence, attitude and self-discipline important? Pilots are trained to remain calm and deal with abnormalities or emergencies in accordance with their training. Flight training is intense and intended to stress-out student pilots. This makes sure he or she is confident enough to make sound decisions and execute tasks/checklists under pressure. How are you dealing with stressful situations? Time, as well as other pressure-adding factors like turbulence, can make decision-making very challenging for pilots. What have you experienced so far? What aspects are important to pay attention to when you drop skydivers? Are there things skydivers can do to be safer on board?

Brad Waitman is the owner and operator of the Igiugig Lodge that sits on the bank of Lake Iliamna, located in the Bristol Bay Area of Alaska. In my mind, it's the greatest fishing lodge i've ever visited. It is world class not only because of its access to some of the world's extensive, legendary fishing, but because of Brad's work ethics and the quality of his prideful lodge. Here's the beauty, he hosts only 6 guests a week and serves food that'll challenge any restaurant in the lower 48, a dream come true for anyone looking for perfection on and off the water! Waitman was raised in San Mateo, California. As a young teen a local fishing club, Anglers Emporium, took him under their wing and helped him with the skills needed to become a great angler. At 15 he was hired to row rivers and set up camps for outfitter, Galand Haas, who eventually persuaded Waitman to chase his dreams in Alaska. At the tender age of 20, just out of the Marines, Brad flew to Anchorage and became what he was destined to become, an Alaskan bush pilot/guide. Ron Hayes, the legendary hunting and fishing outfitter, immediately became his mentor. He pushed Waitman hard demanding the impossible and the young magic man responded beautifully. The fish were in his blood but soon to follow were monster Moose, Caribou, and 57 Brown Bears! Hayes was a perfect councilor for the young man who was new to Alaska. Now, 37 years later with a successful lodge, the time to hunt has been depleted. I first met Brad when he was guiding for Kirk Gay at his lodge, Valhalla. Kirk would eventually become his father in-law. I was there filming for my TV show at the time, “Sportsman's Journal.” The two of us had a blast! Flying everywhere and catching all the great fish Alaska was offering at the time, monster rainbows, silver salmon, and grayling. Alaska is unique, raw and wild, and to experience it with someone you connect with is a dream come true. The long and short of it, 21 years later we're still hanging and fishing together. We all love a good story and Brad Waitman's is compelling. We hope you enjoy it!
