Storyline Edit. User reviews 15 Review. Top review. Well worth watching, if you love 'mature' airplanes. This is clearly a show for aviation enthusiasts, and particularly for that specific subset of those enthusiasts who really like older rotary engine aircraft.

I am, and I do, so I am positively biased. Honestly, it is probably not the best viewing choice for people who don't understand or appreciate that mindset.

The show also offers an example of how many people make their living, and the effort they put forward, the hardships they endure, and the sacrifices that they make, to earn that living. It possibly could serve as a lesson for many young people, although I doubt that those who might benefit from such a lesson are included in the target demographic for the show.

Any reality show must rely on a certain level of artificial drama, and Ice Pilots NWT is no exception. At times, the contrived drama is a bit much. But, the reality of the flying, business, social and personal environments nonetheless comes through. I, for one, am delighted that such an airline can continue to function, and not be squeezed out of existence by needless, and oppressive regulation. By clicking play, you agree to our Terms of Use.

Ice Storm. Buffalo's Electra aircraft is hammered by rough winds up the Mackenzie Valley. Viewers were able to ride along for those six seasons and get to know the technicians, pilots and other characters. The McBryan family became like hoser versions of the Kardashians if that more glamorous family had been swaddled in toques, scarves and parkas. They were all famous for being famous, recognized in airports around the world. Ice Pilots? It really puts an ice breaker to the conversation.

Mikey has tried to capitalize on that recognition. Ice Pilot souvenirs can be found in airports in Winnipeg, Edmonton and other Canadian cities. Toques and T-shirts and even underwear are emblazoned with the Buffalo Air labels. Over the years, the series lured Iron Maiden lead singer and pilot Bruce Dickinson to Yellowknife, along with several NHLers who came north for a charity game.

Pilots have come and gone over the years, including fan favourites Scotty Blue and Justin Simle. A tribute jump from 20 paratroopers is planned but bad weather and an unscouted drop zone has Joe set to cancel the stunt. A jump the next morning will be the last chance to make it all happen. Fans may recall Season Five ended with what seemed like a farewell episode. A sixth and final season was a last-minute decision, says Mikey.
