'Mighty Planes', Season 4, Episode 6: Experience the raw power and reliability of the Twin Otter, the undisputed "workhorse of the North." In this documentary, we follow veteran pilots and the Royal Canadian Air Force’s elite 440 "Vampire" Squadron as they battle extreme -30°C temperatures, frozen fuel lines, and the treacherous terrain of Baffin Island. From hair-raising ski landings on unmapped lakes to the "old school" survival tactics used when instruments fail mid-flight, see why this 1960s legend remains the only lifeline for the Arctic's billion-dollar diamond mines and remote communities.
