Many questions about why so close to the trees. FYI, The trees leading up to the runway are on different hillsides along the rive, and their height gives an almost perfect four degree angle down to the Runway. As for the perceived length, versus the landing roll, you never know how slippery the grass is until you touch down, hence no wasted runway. Second, the corner to go up the hill is pretty sharp, at max gross, you don't want to become a test pilot to see if those long gear legs are going to hold up to the side loads, not to mention that the wing tip clearance is only about ten feet total over the wingspan, and its not straight, it jumps in and out from each side. Take care, happy new year 2017.

G&S Aviation It's an islander. Your average person watching this video has no clue of just what insanity that airplane is capable. Could land on a postage stamp going downhill with 6 fat passengers on board. Sure, fly one for a couple years and you'll never get the sound of unsynched props out of your head as long as you live... And you aren't going to go anywhere in a hurry.. Hell if it's windy enough you might not go anywhere at all after you get in the air... But God it's so worth it for sheer capabilities sake. I spent a good portion of my life around a fleet of 4 of them, and honestly I consider myself a better person for it. The islander is just THAT good.

@@blackhawks81H Agree with you here. I flew a BN-2A for many years and they have a very good steep approach & STOL capability. Low & slow along that river is one way but coming in higher on a steep approach would, in my opinion, be the safer option.

That is Pistol Creek Idaho. Jack Conroy builder of the Guppy series aircraft flew in there with his DC-3 on a family fishing and camping trip. Clay Lacy owned a cabin there along with Allen Paulson Founder and CEO of Gulfstream American. I have a photograph of Allen, Tony Levier and Herman "Fish" Salmon (Lockheed Test Pilots) fishing at that ranch

Why not tell people where it is? Yes, it's a private airstrip, but it's a public guest ranch. It's called Selway Lodge. It's about a mile downstream (North) of Shearer USFS airstrip. The airstrip at this ranch is PRIVATE, you need permission before landing. You can make reservations on their website. It's Idaho backcountry at it's finest.

That there was quite an adventure. Pucker factor over those trees on the ridges at max. Back when KLOM (about 5 sm from my house) was ING, we had a commuter airline flying Islanders and Trilanders as a shuttle service to KPHL and other 'dromes around here. I'd wanna practice going in and out of that ranch in something smaller and more agile first. Oh, and maybe get multi rated. ;-)

I can see a safer approach to be honest. Look at the line right at the 23 second mark. Take that line (but lower than the plane is at that moment), and you'd require a far less severe set of turns. You might have a steeper approach angle, but only slightly and very manageable. That field is very long.
