Small pt-6's in production
V1 Quote:"The -34 engines have been chosen because the -27s are out of production - the -34 is the only small PT6 still in production, thus the only engine available as new/zero time."
Thats not exactly true, in the ag-flying business the are 3 small pt-6's in production the PT6-11 (550shp), PT6-15 (680shp) and the PT6-34 (750shp). These are available from Pratt brand new in a crate. There is also the PT6-145 they put in the Piper Meridian which is 5-600shp if I remember correctly.
