I don't think you can use "nice looking" and "Pilatus Porter" in the same sentence *-) :lol:

However......thanks for the HU AD :thumbsup:

They offered the Airtruk with a two passenger seat module in place of the hopper.

No one bought it :lol: :lol:

QANTAS evaulated it, but decided to buy A.380's instead...all the ugliness but a slight increase in capacity 8)

I had a quick go with PIglet's Porter last week, and it really is a worthwhile download for anyone with FSX. A great VC, small turboprop sounds that I think are best I've ever heard, and incredible STOL performance. Maybe a tad too incredible; it seemed to almost hang on its prop at one point.

Otherwise, terrific stuff from Tim. :cheers:
