It was a Trukish Air Force crew flying the plane without a Canadian instructor on board. They come in drag the keel for about 1000' manage to get the thing airborne after leaving an impressive trail of sparks.

They then immediately start claiming hydraulic failure. The failure was obviously between the headsets.

I have got to say that the C-46 seems to be more trouble than it's worth. What a maintenance pig!

My internet ready Blueray player is finally paying for itself. I am up to S01E08. My wife isn't too happy about watching the Ice Pilot marathon but it will be OK. Anyone else think that girl on there may be using her ASSets to get to the front of the line to the right seat? Wonder how the industry would be if everyone had to work the ramp as the first step to the cockpit.

(SARCASM) I am calling the Canadian FAA. Do they realize that there are sub-500 hour pilots flying in the right seat of those classic planes? They are going to kill someone!!!!!!!!! Oh wait it is only in the US that only 10,000 hr ATPs are safe to fly the right seat, cancel that call. (SARCASM)
