  • Randall,

    I'm not going trying to bash anyone over the Internet but wanted to fill you in on a concern with Papa Bear. I was in Bethel on Wednesday standing at the city docks watching Papa Bear take off on the river. They had two failed attempts before finally get off the water. I would put money on overweight. Our guys are doing a construction project next to the river and said they had two separate takeoffs the day before that were the same, with multiple failed attempts.

    I know Papa Bear is a legit business and their pilots probably know exactly what they are doing. I'm not try to scare you away, just want to make sure you're talking to your pilot about the weight limits and doing some self policing on how much gear you're loading in the plane. These guys can get pressured into pushing the limits in order to make the most client drop as possible. One of the few things you can control on your flight is your own gear weight.

    Have an awesome trip! Good luck.
