I was thinking overnight - it's the Landrover of the skies and been used everywhere for a long time, well understood, but is the Beaver still the right aircraft for this operation?
450hp as opposed to 850hp for the Caravan.
C208 stalls at 70kias - assume that's empty - dunno about the DH-2.
Guess it's a trade-off of purchase, operating costs, average passenger loads etc.
And performance - cruise speed, landing and takeoff run.
Not pointing the stick at the pilot or operator.
Just wondering.
