Author: codebreaker    Time: 1-6-2012 09:05     Subject: Arctic Air Season 1-3 General Discussion Thread (Spoilers)


Arctic Air Premieres on CBC on January 10, 2012



ARCTIC AIR is a one-hour adventure series set in the booming Arctic, about a maverick airline and the unconventional family who runs it.

On the ground, Bobby, the headstrong business partner, struggles to save the airline from crashing financially while Mel, the cantankerous co-owner, keeps his crew of pilots in the air. Caught in the crossfire is Mel's hotshot pilot daughter Krista.

Each ARCTIC AIR episode will stand alone and feature a flying mission. The pilots take on different assignments each week. Deliver cagey prospectors to a top secret diamond mining site. Rescue a group of scientists from a remote snowed-in research camp. Water bomb a raging forest fire. Escort Japanese tourists to polar bear country and make sure they come back alive. Airdrop an emergency generator to a community without heat or power. Airlift a pregnant mother and deliver her baby en route.

Over the season this character-based drama will deliver hard-hitting emotional stories - from the romantic entanglement of Bobby and Krista, to the conflicts that spark between Bobby and his competitors, his business partners and even his extended family. There's a new gold rush heating up under the permafrost, and there are new fortunes of diamonds and oil to claim.

I can see this going another year that going to make it difficult to cut down

Well this look like good Canadian drama but they really need to work on the suspense. It's not fast paced as i would like but nice show to watch when your bored.

Krista's flying skills were impressed with only one engine that was misfiring and it was nice to see her in something different than Sanctuary and you just knew there would be drama with the pregnant girl and the flight but naming the baby Melvin was nice gustier
Author: bala    Time: 1-13-2012 08:20     Subject: Reply 7#7 codebreaker's post

Yes but you just knew there would something wrong with Melvin causing that guy to take over and it be interesting whether he will allow Kirsta to take over or that other guy

losing a plane but getting the contract seem like a bad thing
Author: codebreaker    Time: 1-21-2012 16:03     Subject: Reply 9#9 bala's post

Bobby gambling Mel's plane in a high-stakes poker game was crazy but he should of walked away when he said and Krista's having to put her pilot skills to the test again when the DC-3 runs out of fuel is a little to much considering it's twice in two episodes
Author: bala    Time: 1-21-2012 23:30     Subject: Reply 10#10 codebreaker's post

I have a feeling that's going to be a regular thing as well someone being injured on the plane.
Author: codebreaker    Time: 1-28-2012 13:21     Subject: 1x03 Hijacked

Bobby was unfortunate to put his ex wife and son in danger when he took the hijacker to her dad's home not knowing they was there but stopping Krista from getting the gun did seem stupid and what a moron getting Bobby to fly the DC3 when he said he couldn't fly it

Well i had a feeling one of these episode there were going to get hi-jacked

Three episode in and three so called emergency landings so will there be a fourth next week
Author: codebreaker    Time: 2-4-2012 13:53     Subject: 1x04 All the Vital Things

It's a good job the mechanic, Kirby trusted his gut rather than the pressure gauge and Nelson was lucky to get his job back after all his screw ups but that was some walk of 1000 miles

It was about time we found what they secret package was and it's now going to be intresting to see how they protect him against him.
Author: codebreaker    Time: 2-12-2012 06:18     Subject: Reply 16#16 bala's post

Arctic Air could do with a helicopter for some of the emergencies but the improvised emergencies transport was impressive and how ironic that the pills came in on their planes, saving Bobby's ass and stopping the last shipment was a risky thing to do considering what they were going to do to Bobby

This has now been added to the flash site

Bobby finding his dads plane after all those years was nice but the faked he survived 14 days while they searched for him was sad and Cece was lucky to survive
Author: bala    Time: 2-23-2012 10:10     Subject: Vancouver is Such a Screwed-Up City

Well that was one hell of a trip but look like Bobby was late about realise his feelings for her and i don't think it's good idea to sleep with your room-mate but his dance in morning was amusing.
Author: codebreaker    Time: 3-2-2012 13:35     Subject: Reply 20#20 bala's post

That turned out lucky for Bobby being later for the first plane they went to buy but Dev's after sex dance was priceless
Author: bala    Time: 3-2-2012 13:43     Subject: Reply 21#21 codebreaker's post

Well i don't even remember when she got hired ?
Author: codebreaker    Time: 3-2-2012 14:21     Subject: 1x08 The Professional

You would of thought the police using Nelson would of given him some protection and Mel was double lucky that the sniper hit Zachary and not him
Author: codebreaker    Time: 3-15-2012 15:03     Subject: 1x09 New North

Bobby should of checked with the other before leasing the helicopter and what his friend Gavin did was terrible but the photos was a great way to redeem himself and Dev is not have much luck with the ladies or is he
Author: codebreaker    Time: 3-15-2012 16:11     Subject: 1x10 Drop in for Lunch

What a end to the first season with four of them surviving the crash but Mel's complications during surgery is one hell of a cliffhanger and Blake catching Krista kissing Bobby after agreeing to marry him will cause some trouble
Author: bala    Time: 3-15-2012 23:40     Subject: Reply 25#25 codebreaker's post

I didn't know this was season finale
Author: codebreaker    Time: 3-16-2012 02:01     Subject: Reply 26#26 bala's post

All the TV guides i have checked only have ten episodes but there is one comment on their homepage saying waiting to the fall for it to return but that could be wishful thinking
Author: bala    Time: 3-16-2012 07:01     Subject: Reply 27#27 codebreaker's post

I didn't know i thought it would been 13 episodes and normally they would watermark season finale in the cornor.
Author: codebreaker    Time: 1-10-2013 05:05     Subject: 2x01 Wildfire

Bobby risking his own life to rescue Anna was great but the delay meant they couldn't fly out was unfortunate and Dev dropping the radio when they were heading in the wrong direction was quick thinking
Author: bala    Time: 1-10-2013 07:05     Subject: Reply 29#29 codebreaker's post

Yes but you can still see they haven't recovered from first season with Mel being a bit nervous go back . it was good returning episode .
Author: codebreaker    Time: 1-17-2013 08:10     Subject: 2x02 Bombs Away

Saying in her own language "must be white" when someone was knocking the door was amusing and the eco-terrorist warning him before the second bombing was lucky for him and talk about a close call on the plane
Author: bala    Time: 1-17-2013 08:13     Subject: Reply 31#31 codebreaker's post

Are you notice change in direction this season it been more action/suspence compared to first season let's see what happens next week but         
Krista punching him after she saved him was rather amusing what an ungrateful person.

He was a real jerk being more worried about his expensive equipment than being alive
Author: codebreaker    Time: 1-24-2013 04:34     Subject: 2x03 Open Season

The hunter standing on a beer trap outside the cabin was amusing and nice to see Mel back in the air but quick thinking to adjust the scope, Nelson was lucky to be alive thanks to Bobby and his sister
Author: bala    Time: 1-24-2013 06:00     Subject: Reply 34#34 codebreaker's post

That was great thinking but he really came through.

What a tip getting those girls to entertain those passengers
Author: codebreaker    Time: 1-31-2013 11:50     Subject: 2x04 Stormy Weather

I was wondering what the real estate agent whispered in Dev's ear but finding out why it was so cheap was disturbing but the girlfriend tagging along was amusing and the way Blake disarmed that guy was impressive
Author: codebreaker    Time: 2-7-2013 12:34     Subject: 2x05 Old Wounds

Blake's friend joining the crew was interesting as he would of spent the night with one of them if it wasn't for his temper and then taking a plane drunk was just stupid, Jim coming back to win that first boxing match was impressive as that first punch dazed him but betting against him was risky as it wasn't his money
Author: codebreaker    Time: 2-14-2013 12:09     Subject: 2x06 Dangerous Cargo

What a shame Tara got shot trying to save the polar bear but the way she went about it was reckless

Well you just knew it never good idea what cargo is live stock it bound to get complicated but she was right there were collector and look bobby relationship with kirsten will be rocky.
Author: codebreaker    Time: 3-2-2013 08:47     Subject: 2x07 There's Gold in Them Thar Hills

The pool shark being hustled by Krista after allowing them to win a couple was priceless and the others setting off a mini gold rush was amusing as it cost over $67,000
Author: bala    Time: 3-2-2013 12:52     Subject: Reply 40#40 codebreaker's post

Well i had feeling she was a pool shark and i had feeling that guy would end up surviving   Mel actually get some claim was rather amusing
Author: codebreaker    Time: 3-7-2013 01:18     Subject: 2x08 Secrets & Lies

You can understand why Petra thought her ex husband had abducted Connor after he found out his son knows Bobby is his biological father and the plan for a surprise 35th anniversary party was interesting as Mel found out quickly
Author: bala    Time: 3-7-2013 07:13     Subject: Reply 42#42 codebreaker's post

Well i kind of felt bad for Krista walking in them having a family night guss she made the wrong choice but will he tell her about the kiss or will she find out ?
Author: bala    Time: 3-29-2013 13:24     Subject: Hell Hath No Fury

Well sabotage the engine to get back at bobby for what happened in fight was tragic but that was a close call there were almost on ground
Author: bala    Time: 3-29-2013 13:25     Subject: Skeletons in the Closet

Who would thought title had two meaning but it was good episode so bad luck to mel
Author: codebreaker    Time: 4-1-2013 02:46     Subject: 2x09 Hell Hath No Fury

Bobby lying about not turning up for his date with Delilah Fury was amusing but Kimbo sabotaging the plane to get even with Bobby and claim the insurance money was diabolical
Author: codebreaker    Time: 4-1-2013 03:18     Subject: 2x10 Skeletons in the Closet

Rita being the one the retired Marshal was after was a surprise but an even bigger surprise was the kid she killed was his son and Krista helping Loreen arrange a traditional burial for the bones of her great-great-grandfather is bound to upset the other family members
Author: bala    Time: 4-12-2013 04:09     Subject: Blood Is Thicker Than Water

Well we finally meet Kirsta mother and what a piece of work she was choosing to enjoy her life while she abandons her kid but the fact she left some money was nice gesture but doesn't make up for 25 year absence.
Author: bala    Time: 4-12-2013 04:10     Subject: Fool Me Once

Well i love the ending with him pass the loan off to those guys
Author: codebreaker    Time: 4-14-2013 09:36     Subject: 2x11 Blood Is Thicker Than Water

Meeting Krista mother was interesting as she looked like she was hiding something but I cant believe how selfish she was leaving just to have a good time, I didn't expect the bucket list but the bar fight was amusing as it was Marie who punch first and Connor referring to Bobby as a sperm donor was surprise
Author: codebreaker    Time: 4-14-2013 10:07     Subject: 2x12 Fool Me Once

You can understand why Krista was pissed when she discovered Bobby and Petra's had kiss because she did ask him to be honest but Miranda using her brother for money was diabolical, Astrid having concussion leaving Cece to land the plane was interesting as it was over 40 years since he had lessons
Author: bala    Time: 4-21-2013 06:38     Subject: Ts'inada

That was one hell of a kidnapping to get her brother out of hiding but did they cut the ending off because it look like Bobby is going to get shot since this was season finale surely ended it with him getting shot?.
Author: codebreaker    Time: 4-22-2013 05:38     Subject: 2x13 Ts'inada

They didn't do a good job of faking Nelson's death and I cant believe Dev lost the dog but the interactive feature was a novel touch to the season final

No news on show suddenly it returns -when there no news i assume the show has been cancelled.

On some show promote - it return next year given no announcement i just assumed it hadn't been pick up.

Season 2 started the same time last year and there a lot of shows out there that trailers are hard to find

Trust Dev to get over protective of Astrid when he was only trying to help but what a great rescue

Yes i liked the fact every season they try to something new with the show rescue squad look like a good idea
Author: codebreaker    Time: 1-16-2014 13:07     Subject: 3x02 High Water

Bruce risking all those lives thinking he could get the trucking contract was selfish and the fact the dam was about to burst was irresponsible but all pulling together to build a makeshift dam-buster was awesome
Author: bala    Time: 1-22-2014 08:05     Subject: The Fling

I really enjoyed this episode so many amusing moment so i won't ruin it but that one hell of a consequence of a fling that guy was massive but Dev trying to kick him off the plane was very amusing. Kirsten get stuck in a damaged plane was impressive how she landed as well as survived as well as flying it through a storm to get to yellowknife .
Author: codebreaker    Time: 1-24-2014 04:08     Subject: 3x03 The Fling

I'm guessing Kirsten wont be buying that plane and waiting six hours to report it when she was supposed to be only 20 minutes was crazy but fixing it between them was impressive and trust Blake to sleep with a married woman
Author: codebreaker    Time: 1-30-2014 10:55     Subject: 3x04 The Finish Line

Trust the guys to risk joining the high-stakes plane race to lay to rest some ghosts from Mel’s past and glad the cheaters didn't prosper as they took Mel’s plane after their broke down

That was a smart trick
Author: codebreaker    Time: 2-6-2014 01:59     Subject: 3x05 The Devils You Know

The way the officer arrested the big guy was impressive but Krista taking out the girlfriend was amusing and Bobby fighting to save Petra’s life savings was understandable as Dearman was about to loss it but taking Bruce's truck was karma for what he did
Author: bala    Time: 2-27-2014 13:29     Subject: On the Edge

What Kirsta had to do was the toughest thing she would have ever done in her life but that what i call a tough day .

God help if it was one of the bureaucrats on the mountain side and only an unlicensed rescue team but after the wife's phone call that amputation was heart wrenching and the look on all there faces as he screamed out just made you want to cry

I really hope he doesn't sue them for amputation

Caitlin going AWOL on her first solo flight was risky
Author: codebreaker    Time: 3-13-2014 17:37     Subject: 3x08 The Fugitive

It's a shame Blake and Lindsay didn't know the prisoner transport could becomes a life and death situation as he was a killer not just a robber and looks like Krista and Tag have reached an impasse in their long distance relationship

The guy accusing Connor for shoplifting has a lot to answer for as the fight for Bobby and Connor’s survival all stemmed from that and the way he spoke to the previous customer I thought she had stole it but the fact he stole it himself was unbelievable

Bobby jumping the gun and blaming Bruce for his foster sister’s death is going to have serious consequences
Author: codebreaker    Time: 4-7-2014 02:59     Subject: 3x11 The Fall (1)

Mel decking Kimbo was great but you knew it would come back on them and wouldn't surprise be he was behind the hit and run which put Petra in a coma, Krista having to make the tough call to leave the climber another night was the right thing to do but with the amount of climber to rescue the crew are going to be pushed to their limit during the high-altitude rescue and being a in two parts you knew it would be a cliffhanger literally
Author: codebreaker    Time: 4-9-2014 02:44     Subject: 3x12 The Fall (2)

What a twist with Tag hanging off the cliff at the end of the last episode and now with the plane crashing with everyone else on-board but finishing the show before they got off the mountain was too early for a series finale
Author: bala    Time: 4-9-2014 08:19     Subject: Reply 79#79 codebreaker's post

Waited to watch both episode together but good cliffhanger but i think they really rush it at end but we kind of knew where it was all going with all characters and fact nothing left unresolved was great.
