- Yet another great Gravity Knight flying video, with some awesome scenery: Landing at Flying B Ranch Idaho – Badlands Traveler. Now, that is a truly remote ranch — with micro-hydro power! Oh, and at the four-minute mark, take note of the Quest Kodiak STOL plane parked alongside the river side of the grass strip. Those are manufactured in Sandpoint, Idaho. And the classic trail-dragger seen starting at the 7:35 mark is an eight-seats 1954 DeHavilland DHC-2 air taxi plane that is operated by Middle Fork Aviation, out of Challis, Idaho. It has a Pratt & Whitney R-985-AN-14B Wasp Junior radial reciprocating engine. I love round engines! – JWR
