Three episodes in...European-lineage caucasions continue to save the day by flying varous sundry items and a collection of natives in their amazing flying machines while averting near total disasters on narrow, icy runways and strong, gusty crosswinds! This week, Sarah's door pops open on the caravan and a brake locks up on a Beech 1900.
Notably absent this year is Aerial in the left seat holding the wheel. It's been stated that she's "8-hours shy of being able to take her private flight test". But, so far, her only flying has been to sit on the right side, wear a headset, provide eyeballs on search missions, admire Daddy as he makes ski-landings, and observe the token female Sarah as she drives the overgrown 172 with a turbine.
Perhaps the producers have been reading on aviation forums about how disturbing her performances were last year?
In episode one, it's hinted that later this season, Jim-Bob's gonna step down as "the operational boss of all things"...that seems like a good move, as he's got a pretty impressive fleet, a bunch of pilots, and runs a lot of flights. But instead of sitting behind a computer, and telephone, like the CEO of American Airlines, he seems to spend most of his time bag-chucking and driving the 180 on really special missions. Now he can do more of what he wants and leave running the company to some suit (there goes the end of Era Air).
