Well done David, it is indeed a DHC-6 Twin Otter. Just features the usual stabiliser mods to compensate for the floats.


LM has control

Actually that was a little early for you to offer, no? Is this going to be really hard?

OK. Yes please. Looks like you stumped Ken.

Revised one million mark first half of August.
I have my doubts mate, but it'll be interesting to watch though...

It's a newly-modified version (2009) of a well-known kitplane which was produced as a two-seater by another well-known US manufacturer.

Nope. I think I'm done mate, no idea what that is.

well-known kitplane
How old is this well-known kitplane and how much modification did they make? I mean at first glance there looked to me like there was a bit of the old Whitman Tailwind in there.

Just saw your fox.

A modified Kitfox
