Yes i read that ATO gets around a fair bit. No shortage of parts for it i would think.
I worked on SNX, BRP and WRT when Sydney Skydivers had them. Really maintainence heavy as they were treated pretty rough. WRT was already a mess when it came from QLD.

I wonder what Gippsland have in store. There would be a fair bit of redesign and maybe more power for it. I wonder if they are considering the T Tail?
Personally i'd start with the gear and work up from there. Any word on what is happening to it?
A 16 place twin will be hard to compete with aircraft like the Caravan, Kodiak etc. i've crawled all thru the Kodiak and it is one well built aircraft.
