Interesting post V1.

As usual the majority of accidents caused by the nut on the end of the contol yoke.

V1... Ooops
Thank you for a very informative reply.

I trust that this now puts the argument about legitimate LETs and the other cowboys in the right perspective. LET's not hear the trotting out and dusting off of old worn-out cliché’s, untruths and downright lies, as espoused by the Otter drivers every time the LET is mentioned.

I posted some additional information related to the history of Twin Otter accidents on this post, in response to a question that was raised there: http://www.pprune.org/forums/showthr...hreadid=186105

I understand that the LET is available with two different engines on it - the original fitment, and a PWC engine. Is there a significant difference in performance - in particular, single engine performance - between the two? Did the manufacturer publish different performance data (takeoff run, rate of climb, SE climb, etc.) for the PWC engine when it was offered later on?
