bush planes
Wilderness landing craft
Bush planes are small, rugged aircraft designed to operate in remote wilderness areas, typically equipped with features like short takeoff and landing capability, oversized tires or floats, and reinforced landing gear.
They serve regions without conventional airstrips—delivering supplies, transporting passengers, and providing emergency access to backcountry locations: The bush plane touched down on a gravel bar beside the river.
