GBJim Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 (edited) The de Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter, currently marketed as the Viking Air DHC-6 Twin Otter, is a Canadian 19-passenger STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) utility aircraft developed by de Havilland Canada and currently produced by Viking Air. I love turboprops. This one is a very big and powerful twin turboprop with huge floats. I spent some time today flying up the Saint Lawrence river, located between Canada and New York state. Met a ferry boat also going up river. I have a feeling that the ferry boat people were glad to see me leave.

CRJ_simpilot Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Not bad. I'll have to give that a fly one day. I loved my Cessna Caravan amphibian back in FS2004. OOM errors? Read this. What the squawk? An awesome weather website with oodles of Info. and options. Wile E. Coyote would be impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flightsimg Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Hi! During my first epoch on the forum, I flew a wheeled Twin Otter in Norwegian regions. A fine and agreable plane! I recently read that they had modernized the avionics inside! Fine! Gérard Guichard, Dijon, Burgundy, France. i5 Intel processor, 4 Go of Ram, Nvidia GeForce 920MX, DirectX 12.0, and FSX Gold Edition with SP1, SP2.

GBJim Posted October 12, 2018 Author Share Posted October 12, 2018 (edited) Nice pics, but can you please tell us what sim, & what plane & scenery? Sorry to be so delinquent. The sim is FSX Steam, the plane a de Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter, and the scenery is all default, nothing special has been added. The Twin Otter is available from the first page of General Aviation at Fly Away downloads.

Rupert Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 That's a great looking bird! And I can see where it'd be right down Jan's alley!! In fact whilst we were searching for Jan a year or two ago an aircraft that versatile would have come in handy! You never know where Jan is going to crash!! :eek::eek: But it's usually wet!!;) Being an old chopper guy I usually fly low and slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
