You'll be in the thick of if you are living at a lodge. I find a picture is worth a thousand words. So show 'em how to open the doors and make sure they ar...

The PT6 in most Caravans is a -114A model rated at 675 HP (sorry to be a quibbler). I have first hand experience with the wing and it's lack of ability to fly dirty (on floats). After taxiing out last October with the wings clean but in heavy snowfall, I was able to get "on the step" but unable to g...

Sounds like fun! I used to own a 1957 7EC Champ. Nice interior (mine had the full panel) , good brakes (Cleveland disc conversion) and cruised at an enjoyable 95mph with the 90 HP engine while only burning 4GPH and using very little oil.
