The
Pilatus Turbo Porter
PC-6
is famous in the aviation world for its Short Take-off and Landing
(STOL)
performance on almost any type of terrain. (click on the link for more
details)
This is the 3rd improved version of this popular
series of Porter PC-6 tow planes. It basically shares the same airframe
as the predecessor and is also perfect as a tug, but also a joy
to fly and see!
Accurately reproduced with its typical shape, and has great handling.
The generous flaps will allow steep dive back, without acceleration, and
make a soft land at your feet, thanks the shock absorbed landing gear,
and get an other glider on tow quickly.
A pure pleasure to fly!
Here the the major differences between the
standard version and this super scale version:
*Slightly increased wingspan, thanks the new
fibreglass moulded wing tips
*Sheet metal reproduction on all control surfaces (elevator, rudder,
ailerons and flaps)
*Fiberglas moulded instrument panel, for a more realistic interior
*New curved scale windshield
*New scheme in SkyDive PARA CENTER
This is a very quick build kit, all major assembly
work, to make sure that wing stab and rudder will be installed square
