Hi there im looking for info on the new Kodiak Quest aircraft.I have been looking around couldnt find any post about it. I know there is only a few out there in Canada.

All the Kodiak Pilot out there lets us know what you guys think about the bear !!

Drove by superiors the other day and saw it to. Its a nifty looking airplane, but what is its advantages, if any, over the caravan that they have?

It will fly in ice. lol. i know bctel bought one to replace the turbo beaver. i believe that the quest is a hangar queen now.

Telus also has one on the west coast...

Same as the bctel one. Some people just forget about the name changes eh

advantage of the quest is better short field performance compared to the van /due to lower gross wt and the pt6 750 hp engine vs 675hp of the 208 caravan

what it does well is and would be good at is a company like wolverine in ft simpson nt where avgas is really expensive and getting harder to get and many other places too

it will be as the yrs go by an excellent replacement aircraft for a the aging 206 /207 fleets / etc

Great looking aircraft-there is one at Superior Airways and its spiffy!
----------------------I agree with you...

I flew it on wheels and it was phenomenal!! I hear it isn't so good on floats but what I experienced was great.. I would think I could get it doing some pretty amazing things after a bit of time...
