Re: Turbine Otters Revisited

The Orenda was a great looking alternative. A 750HP version with fuel injection would be a very nice fit for the ol' Otter !
I hope the people at TRACE can actually see this project through as well as keeping the price in line $$$$$.
750K for a pointy nose is massive retardation !

Re: Turbine Otters Revisited

Christ ! That Husky is one ugly concept. Nice to see Orenda / Trace back in the mix. I see on their website that the Otter isn't on the list of a retrofit but the Beaver is. 600 HP is a little light if you're trying to make a better airplane out of the Otter. As for the Beaver, pretty good the way i...

Re: Beaver down off Saturna island?

Not sure if I can get this picture thingy to work, but here goes a picture of our Beaver with the modified door handles. Pretty easy mod and it enables the pilot to open both rear doors without leaving his seat.

Re: Bose X vs. Lightspeed Zulu vs. David Clark X11

I've used DC's for several years. Tried a Bose but sent them back. They were comfortable but wouldn't keep up to the noise canceling during take-off. Just bought a LS Zulu a few weeks ago and so far am very happy. Nice and light, noise canceling works great, blue tooth feature for the cell phone is ...

Re: Air Canada liable for lost, damaged luggage

So I guess we can conclude that one should not check anything that they can't afford to have wrecked or stolen !
I wouldn't be in business very long if that was our policy

Re: Gangs infiltrating Canadian airports

Well if anyone comes across a Dell with a bunch of decals ( Snowbirds, DeHaviland etc.) from the Pearson flea market please advise me. I might even offer a reward, there was some info on that computer that I would like to have back.

Cheers,

Re: Question for the Beech drivers.

All depends on experience and how badly you're needed. It's probably good to have a few thousand hrs of float time with maybe some Otter time in there but guys have gone onto the 18 with alot less. It's a challenging airplane but it will do a pile of work when you get it figured out and most importa...

I'm assuming your looking to apply for a pilots position, manning the pay toilets..... not a great career choice. There are 2 companies. Maldivian Air Taxi which is Borek and Transmaldivian Airways.
