[Noyade]

[Noyade]

No mate, there's a soccer field and a petrol station. Sleep well.

Another...

[Lightning Mate]

That exhaust smells a bit like a PT6.

[Noyade]

PT6

Tis indeed mate. Think back to your turboprop DC-3.
This aircraft was originally a submarine hunter.

[Lightning Mate]

Possibly the Turbo Firecat.

I'll second that

Conair's converted Grumman S-2 Trackers powered by two Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A turboprops fit all of Graeme's clues!

Your Thread mate

[Noyade]

Turbo Firecat.

That's him. Your control mate.

[Lightning Mate]

Thanks mate - hope your "festivities" went well.

[Karlark]

Argus As 411 or Renault 12 S engine?

Morane Saulnier MS-477?

[Lightning Mate]

Correct with the engines - both were used.

It's not, however, a Morane Saulnier - this one is a twin.

Right country though.

[Tupperware Pilot]

If its a twin then...Focke-Wulf Fw 189?? but that photo is a 3 blade prop.


which means it might have been Sud-Ouest Corse II??

[Lightning Mate]

I have already said that it's French, albeit designed in Germany.

edit - not the Sud-Ouest Corse II.

[Ridge Runner]

Siebel 204? (NC701?)

Edit: usual rules apply if I'm correct.
