Shalom and greetings all my pals,

Allow me to present nice example of educational screenshots of Canadian aviation history using DC-10-30 for 90 minute flight from one of the coldest airports in the world: PASC Deadhorse Airport located in Deadhorse on the North Slope of Alaska near Prudhoe Bay to PANC Anchorage International Airport located four nautical miles southwest of downtown Anchorage, Alaska!!!!

Mighty and shiny DC-10-30 ready for pushback and engine start at PASC

Starting engines

Taxiing to runway 22 with gorgeous background view of COLORFUL
Alaskan sky

Entering into runway 22

Unleashing awesome thrust power of 53,000 lbf (235.8 kN) to start take off run

Airbone on climb to FL340 heading to PIPET toward CQR (look at very shiny engine covers)

Still climbing through some heavy clouds

Here is irrefutable proof of best part of flying within Alaska!! GORGEOUS sky view!!

Cruising at FL340 above snowy Alaskan landscape

Intercepting CQR and heading to ENN toward TKA

Gorgeous view of majestic and famed Mount McKinley or Denali which is the highest mountain peak in North America and the United States, with a summit elevation of 20,320 feet while descending from FL340 to 10,000 ft now at FL230

At 10,000 ft above Cook Inlet on way to PANC runway 32

You can see PANC in background with runways 7L and 7R in visual!!

Descending from 10,000 ft to 3,000 ft with background view of cruise ship

Making left turn toward runway 32 while deploying landing gear

On final approach to runway 32

Moments before touchdown

TOUCHDOWN!!

Braking down on icy runway 32

You drank some REALLY OLD wine from that year? :lol:

It's really bad when you can remember expo 67, It was a big one, Canada being 100 years old and all.
as I go into a dark corner and cry......

You guys are not alone!!! Our family drove from near Thunder Bay to Montreal for Expo 67. I was about 10.

First of all, what a fantastic video flight tour. Amazing. Now let me join you old guys. I travelled to Expo 67 in a school bus with the rest of my grade seven school pals from Hamilton. I also went to Expo 86 in Vancouver. I have an odd memory from our first day there. It was raining (like it always does in Vancouver). Anyway it was Saudi Arabia day and I remember watching a sheikh dressed in gold and white robes climb up some stairs to an outdoor stage and he slipped and took a header right onto the wet stage. :shock:
