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.

Yes I'm looking forward to this and the Republic of Doyle the following day

codebreaker

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

codebreaker

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

codebreaker

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

codebreaker

Three episode in and three so called emergency landings so will there be a fourth next week

codebreaker

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

codebreaker

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

codebreaker

This has now been added to the flash site

codebreaker

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

codebreaker

That turned out lucky for Bobby being later for the first plane they went to buy but Dev's after sex dance was priceless

codebreaker

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

codebreaker

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

codebreaker

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

codebreaker

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

codebreaker

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

codebreaker

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

codebreaker

He was a real jerk being more worried about his expensive equipment than being alive

codebreaker

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
