Bush Planes	Bush Pilots
A bush plane is a general aviation aircraft serving remote, undeveloped areas of a country, usually the African bush, Alaskan and Canadian tundra or the Australian Outback. Among the most common bush planes are the Cessna 180, Cessna Caravan and 206/207, de Havilland Otter, Beaver and DHC-6 Twin Otter, Douglas DC-3/C-47, Piper Super Cub and Antonov An-2, although countless other aircraft types serve in these hostile, demanding environments. A bush plane should have a short take-off and landing distance. A typical bush plane will have wings on top of its fuselage to ensure that they do not make contact with any overgrowth in the landing area. They will also have conventional ("tail-dragger") landing gear as it has a greater aeronautic ability than tricycle landing gear, and is more suited to rough surfaces.	Bush pilots are also recognized as having one of the most deadly/demanding jobs in the world.  Our flight routes offer advance flying techniques, specifically with regards to flying in the bush. You will discover areas within the airplane's performance envelope you never thought possible. You will obtain maximum performance from your aircraft, master extreme short and soft field techniques, landing in unimproved areas and sloped one way in and out mountain strips, and flying in confined mountainous areas. A real bush pilot is not a person who simply fly's an airplane in a "bush" environment or who can land on nice long and hard and reasonably well prepared dirt or grass strips. Just because you can fly into "bush" strips at game lodges or over remote and unpopulated areas does not necessarily make you a bush pilot!
Other Aircraft @ Eagle Valley	Bush Flying
We attempt to make our charter business successful by using other successful charter aircraft which may use unimproved and short runways.  These include light twins and modern medium haulers which can move cargo or be used as charter leases.  In the end, we attempt to mimic real world charter companies who provide the bush experience.	Bush flying is a term for aircraft operations carried out in remote and inhospitable regions of the world. Bush flying involves operations into unimproved and rough terrain, frequently necessitating bush planes be equipped with abnormally large tires, floats or skis. This type of flying, combined with unpredictable weather and distance from help means that bush pilots have to be very resourceful to be successful, or all too frequently, just to stay alive.
