Flying the Backcountry with Joe Spence

When it comes to flying the Eagle Cap Wilderness and Hells Canyon, Joe Spence is a local legend. Joe knew he wanted to be a pilot since he was 5 years old,  and in 1978, he joined the Joseph Flyers Club and started training. Over the course of his career, he has logged about 20,000 flight hours. This man has literally spent over two years of his life in the air. Operating a Cessna 206 and a Piper Cub, Joe has done countless game census flights, trained a lot of pilots, and saved numerous people injured in the backcountry. Flying over mountains and canyons is dangerous business, but there's no one I trust more in a plane than Joe. Fly with Joe at Spence Air Service out of Joseph or Enterprise, Oregon(541) 426-3288
