Nice video, I believe its been posted before... but more importantly why must people insist on the crappy top gun music??

Pretty cool, but that Beaver's paint job seems positively blasphemous.

Couldn't agree more, but its one of the classic original conversions...I think....

And it's not a 'true' turbo Beaver but rather a regular Beaver with a turbine conversion.

I remember seeing this Turbine Beaver a few years back and it is painted in Canadian colors on the other side, a little more appropriate considering its heritage.

I'm not sure what this proves? A turbine Beaver Kicks a 206's butt on floats. Anyone surprised by that?

Other than cost, is there anything the 206 could ever do better? It's like a top fuel dragster racing a rice rocket, what did you think would happen?
