TRIs

My BN Guroo Tim thells me that the TRI wing is dimentanaly the same as the Islander's with the Extednd ( Older type ) tip Tanks
And Yes the castering nose wheel can catch one out. It did me, I cliped the tail cone on my own Fuel tanker that was parked out at the end of the wing trying to get it out of a tight spot they can turn on Sixpenc.

With regards to Bill Spence Was he the blocke who was trying to put a 1,100 HP Honywell turbine in the tail and do away with the other two engines ! Now that would be a Caravan beatter and you would not have to shut down on thurn arounds so save those preseios turbine cycles
