Turbine power




Early version of the nz fletcher,no where near as ugly as the ag wagon i had a ride in the back of one once.Weird flying when you can only see what's been passed already.Felt like a tail gunner.




Noice


I hope you sent the letter by registered mail to make sure you know he got it.Foam sheet wings are usually straight forward why do you think the wing spars may be tricky,do you have a pic?
I like the look of pawnees and spent a lot of time in sailplanes being towed by the club 180hp pawnee and various tiger moths,austers and chipmunks.I was flying as a guest at another club and they had a 260hp pawnee which is quite a bit of giddyup for sailplane towing but that's the most powerful version i've come across over here.For AG duties new zealand designed and built the fu24 fletcher with lycoming flat four/six/eight and then turbine variants,the payloads just went up and up.
