Ice Airport Alaska: Season 2, Episode 2

2 - 2: Heavy Lifting

A multi-million-dollar plane and a multi-million-dollar mission are in jeopardy as Alaska endures another long winter. An issue with the landing gear of a cargo 737 lands the aircraft in Ted Stevens' state-of-art maintenance hangar for a very dangerous repair. North of the airport, "hurricane hunters" from NOAA are in a race to fix their P3 Orion in time to rendezvous with two satellites deep inside the Arctic Circle. Meanwhile, the stakes are high (very) for a helicopter pilot flying building supplies into the tallest mountain range in America.
