It's Christmas in the Canadian North, and the remote communities are relying on Buffalo Airways to deliver essential food and supplies. But when a C-46 suffers an engine failure in the remote town of Norman Wells, a huge chain reaction begins.
With temperatures dropping to -30°C, a mechanic faces the daunting task of replacing the entire engine on the frozen tarmac. Back at the hangar, a growing cargo backlog puts the team under enormous pressure to get Christmas deliveries moving.
When another aircraft suffers a landing gear problem, the pressure reaches breaking point. With communities depending on them, Buffalo Airways must find a way to get the vital supplies in the air.

The official home of the iconic Canadian docu-series Ice Pilots NWT. Set in Yellowknife, this high-flying series follows Buffalo Airways, a renegade airline that keeps WWII-era aircraft flying in one of the harshest places on Earth. Led by bush pilot legend “Buffalo” Joe McBryan and his son Mikey, the team battles brutal storms, tight deadlines, and vintage planes with minds of their own. With rookie pilots, dangerous landings, and impossible delivery missions to the Arctic’s edge, Ice Pilots is where aviation history meets real-world survival.
