Any ideas about Skytruck? or PZL M28.

Few companies have started operating with them. Any reports?

"PZL M28 SKYTRUCK - GENERAL DESCRIPTION

DESCRIPTION

The M28 SKYTRUCK Model 05 is a twin-engined high-wing cantilever monoplane of all-metal structure, with twin vertical tails and a robust tricycle non-retractable landing gear, featuring a steerable nose wheel to provide for operation from short, unprepared runways where hot or high altitude conditions may exist. The M28 is best suited for passenger and/or cargo transportation.

GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
short takeoff & landing (STOL) capability
perfect flight handling at low airspeeds
high useful load, mission versatility
unpaved airstrip operating capability
easy access through rear cargo door, fitted with a hoist for cargo loading and relocation inside the cabin
high-wing arrangement for protection of engines and propellers against damage when operating from unpaved airstrips
easy and quick conversion of the cabin interior configuration
low operating cost
PT6 engines of inverted configuration for efficient protection against foreign object ingression owing to inertial separators installed inside air inlet ducts."
