motherlode beaver crash

Not only did everyone get out, but I remind you all, DAVE WAS UNINJURED and survived for HOURS afterward. While filming on location in northern British Columbia, this aircraft was crashed on landing on floats in a north country lake with the cameras rolling. I wonder if maybe they were imports from the us. The Beaver floatplane was recovered from the lake and transported to Kelowna, British Columbia, where it was fully restored, put back on wheels and sold to an American business, which licensed the aircraft as N323RS.The aircraft which is landing when the Mollyco Cessna 206 wanders onto its runway is a Cessna 185, which performs an abrupt "firewall" (application of full power) and pull-up to clear the 206. As flyinthebug pointed out on the other thread, I may have a different perception of what a "hard landing" means. While he directed and starred, his son Fraser Clarke Hestoncame up with the idea, wrote the script and acted as producer, while his wife Lydia is credited as still photographer.

I still stand on the fact that those beavers were there. Neither the Cessna 206 nor 185 was normally rated for such aerial maneuvers as depicted in the film. The FAA sent two investigators to the crash … Post by Driving Rain » Fri Feb 13, 2009 6:23 pm. As in DHC-2 Beaver? It's the speculation verbalized that's unfair.

The imdb page for this movie lists Scholl as a "camera pilot".

It cannot be determined if the submerged aircraft was a scratch-built movie prop or an actual salvaged airframe. Way back in the 80's there were 2 maybe three sitting in the grass at CYEG. 2000 hrs tt. Why are some people such oafs?Actually these pictures and comments should give widow a better opportunity to try and find out why the airplane sank.....if it hit hard enough to destroy the airplane to the point it sank very fast why were there no bodies inside the airplane?I already know the answer to that Cat.

someone must have a copy they can upload a clip from.Yeah, FYI, look at the evidence please. Beaver returned to its family in Canada, after a long time away. "The family firm, Agamemnon Films, produced the film, and along with several other long-lost titles it's been licensed for distribution through Warner Home Video." The Beaver is Canada's national animal. Moderators: lilfssister, North Shore, ahramin, sky's the limit, sepia, Sulako, I WAS Birddog. Olive green and if I remember one had approx. A little sensitivety would be nice. - Albert EinsteinI think we all have a pretty good idea on that Cat. A 1952 model built for the Canadian military, it was featured in the film MOTHER LODE starring Charlton Heston and Kim Bassinger. Suprising, really.Ok I know when I'm outgunned. Just commenting that it still must hurt and until one has been in that position we have no idea how much.Widow I meant no disrespect nor did I wish to cause you any grief. Encountering his brother, Ian McGee, their search turns into a whodunit mystery/adventure, involving mistaken identities, greed and murder.

Mother Lode involved members of Charlton Heston's family. Re: The Mother Lode. Epilogue . Beaver: "nurrrrrp!" CANBERRA, Australia (AP) — A seaplane pilot was impaired by carbon monoxide fumes from engine exhaust when he flew off course and crashed into a … Beaver joins the team! i don't recall kim bassinger being in it though. Trivia . Isn't it more likely it was one of them flying, rather than the camera pilot? Gunther could very well have been doing the itran.There is a clip of the accident on Transport Canada's Pilot Decision Making CD, the video is called "It's Your Decision".i remember watching the movie years ago.

The submerged Cessna floatplane is either a Cessna 180 or 185, exact model indeterminate; the wing flap width distinguishes it from a Cessna 206. - Albert EinsteinThis thread must be incredibly hard for you Widow. 55 posts Previous; 1; 2; 3; Next; Driving Rain Rank 10 Posts: 2695 Joined: Wed Feb 18, 2004 1:10 am Location: At a Tanker Base near you. When her husband George disappears after a flight into northern British Columbia's interior wilderness to search for gold, Andrea Spalding contacts Jean Dupre for help, who just happens to be available for hire after intimidating a surly passenger with Together, Dupre and Spalding embark on a search in a dilapidated On arrival at Headwater, Dupre accidentally crashes the aircraft during the water landing, yet he and Spalding survive, shaken but unhurt. The two planes collided approximately 2 miles northeast of the Soldotna Airport, the FAA statement said after crash. If I had bought them I could retire now.

Most of the damage to the aircraft happened in the rollover sequence after the float strut broke. It didn't hit hard. On July 11, two people died in a Beaver crash in central Ontario and a day later three of four people aboard a Beaver were killed in a crash near Chibougamau, Quebec. - Albert EinsteinHow do you know it was Art Scholl flying that plane? Life is a tough master.Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not after you!BTW, Blakely is certainly correct on that. "The world is not dangerous because of those who do harm but because of those who look at it without doing anything." I feel bad for you. Not a problem Sidley. From there, the pair become involved in suspicious activities with Silas McGee, a prospector and hermit intent on protecting his silver mine.
