Ice Pilots

Second Chances (6x5)

Air date: Nov 26, 2014

Newly licensed DC-3 co-pilot Jeff Tapper had a rough landing that nearly skidded off the runway. While Jeff works on his landing skills on a flight simulator, rampie Prefkar is studying hard to prepare for his IATAR test. But Prefkhar's studying distracted himself from his courier delivery job when he accidentally left medical supplies that have "do not freeze" sticker on the box inside the delivery truck overnight, spoiling the medical contents. Prefkhar faces the consequence for his mistakes and his time at Buffalo may be running out. Kathy and her friend is trying to get a new dog for Joe from local SPCA. Joe decides to bring out the seldom-flown DC-3 (C-FCUE) to test Jeff and the new dog, Muffy. C-FCUE has a storied history. It was the first aircraft that landed in Yellowknife and carried Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau before. But C-FCUE's controls are different than most DC-3 aircraft in Buffalo's fleet. Can Jeff quickly learn to fly the plane to redeem himself and can Muffy withstand flying in the air and become Joe's new dog?
