An engine seizure halts Christmas supply - Ice Pilots NWT S01E02 - True Story

It’s the Christmas season and the northern communities depend on Buffalo more than ever to fly in food and supplies. But the engine in the C-46 seizes up in the tiny town of Norman Wells, stranding Scott and AJ and causing a chain reaction that pushes the whole company to the breaking point.
Crusty mechanic Chuck Adams faces the challenge of replacing the entire engine – bare-handed in the minus 30 deep freeze – on the remote tarmac. Back at the Yellowknife hangar, tempers flare as cargo manager Kelly Jurasevich is pushed to the breaking point to re-route the Christmas food and goods. But when the landing gear on the backup C-46 gets stuck, captain Devan Brooks must turn back. Yet Joe presses Mikey in no uncertain terms; they’ve got to get the goods out somehow.
