Honestly, do Americans feel a need to glorify all things related to War? Even when some things had nothing to do with War? The deHaviland Beaver was designed by and for bush pilots serving prospectors, fishers, hunters, and fly-in Canadian communities. That the US military ordered about a thousand of them is a testament to the versatility of the aircraft.

Incredible production, especially the shot from underneath over the water. It just shows what happens when design and engineering match the solution for tough times and places! Beautiful.

I fished in Maine wilderness areas made accessible to me by the Beaver. That plane took off down trout streams scraping bottom, it’s a beast that will get you in and out again, I’m thrilled to have had my time one.

I do truly do apologize for you statement that the bevervwas built for war as untrue as it could be the plane was designed for the Canadian north.. and it never had a intended military customer that came about by fluke it was just a perfect fit as a stol bush plane in particular on water primarily and not wheels infact out of the 1600+ I would bet 90% spend most of the year on flots and the rest on skis. New it cost around 30,000 with flots today it's well over 300,000.00 I have heard some have been sold for over 1 million. The best feature is its wing won't ever time out if maintained and not abused. The PW Wasp eng was overpowered backbone of the little 3/4 ton 4X4 flying pickup truck. Souped up with a turboprop and there's very few mountains you can't fly over

I tried hard to give this a thumbs up, but... I'm getting too old for these videos; a bunch of 4 second segments strung together with crappy music and interspersed with random slow motion shots. Please stop trying to produce art when a documentary will do better. "Bush Pilot: Reflections on a Canadian Myth" Now that's how you do it.

Great footage, but the music is completely not the right category for this footage. This footage should have some more refined music which gives the film a deeper impression, not dubstep.
