In the Fall of 1993, an isolated gravel airstrip 160 air miles north
of Yellowknife named Salamida was the scene of a massive, two million
pound airlift. This set Canada’s Northwest Territories on
course to becoming a major world producer of diamonds.
At the time, aviation videographer Henry Tenby was employed by
NWT Air, and he video documented the Salamida airlift activities
of the company’s Lockheed L100-30 Hercules C-GHPW. The Herc
was tasked with hauling heavy, over-sized mining equipment
between Yellowknife and Salamida in support of the nearby Koala
mine site in an airlift operation which spanned several months.
This DVD features fabulous Herc flightdeck footage, and plenty of
gravel strip landing, taxi, unloading, and take-off Herc action, all
filmed runway-side on location at Salamida. There’s also footage
of the Twin Otters and DC-4 aircraft that served in this airlift, as
well as an exclusive air-to-air photo session with the Herc, and a
special air-to-air on Helifor’s Chinook to the Koala mine site.
A special thanks goes out to NWT Air’s Herc crew for making this
unique and historic DVD possible. Herc fans will love this DVD.
