mmm...super porter

The -67 out of the PC-12 is a whopping 1,200 shp , wonder if it will ever get to that ?
I would love to see that!

Phil Onus (sydney skydive) has a 850hp turbo Beaver -AAX. I don't know how it compares in size, payload, time to a Porter. It has less wing area and a smaller cab, but a higher empty weight (from generic figures).
I imagine it is still a bit of a beast with that kind of power. Has anyone here flown it?
