You were supposed to keep my name out of it Doug. Angry

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

A new and novel way to apply the "propwash" to the airscrew Doug.....or was it an attempt to "washout" the wings ?......
Either way, something or someone may just get hung out to dry on this arrival ...........?

Ever wondered why the Twin Otter has an emergency exit on the roof of the fuselage? This is why... Grin

Good morning Wade...

Hope you are getting lots of flying in out there... Wink

I know the Single Engine DHC-3 Otter had a roof hatch as well as the DHC-6 Twin Otter. I am sure the DHC-4 Caribou and DHC-5 Buffalo did as well.

Not sure about the Beaver though.

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

....I can see how that could happen Wink

Thanks Doug

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"
