Cheers mate! Nice to know that it might still be around! True as you say thuogh, regarding a trubine and more metal for the performance and ruggidness (how far can performance go for a bushplane?) On my videoclip it lands on a sandbank in the middle of the rappids and lets off a couple of fishermen, then it turns back and applies brakes, full power and then release. shortly thereafter flaps are jerked out and it's airborne! I've gotta try it!
