There may be a large PC-9 being developed over here in Aus. Suit Wren turbo prop. Been on the drawing board for probably 2 years. No more information is known as yet. maybe look out for this one in the next year or so, i believe it will happen juts is a matter of time to produce, test and then kit something of this size.
Would be a very nice choice as per Maverick's suggestion.
Cheers

Well, if you had ANOTHER Wren TP, I could supply you with this ! 18% Exact scale of the Beechcraft Starship-2000A.
Specs: 114" W.S.. 8'-5" Lg. 14 sq. ft of wing area, fully funtional and coupled Fowler Flap and mechanically sweeping Canard.

Just food for thought.

If you are a scratch builder their is a learjet looking aircraft that has a turboprop right on the nose, i cant think of the name or who makes it but I am sure someone here knows what I am talking about.

Mike,
The building board is cleaned off and I am waiting patiently. I have a second Wren Turboprop ordered and Roger has agreed to install smoke fittings on the exhaust.
I will start a new build (finish) thread once the kit arrives. Thanks for the great service and quick email replies.
BTW, I now have 34 flights on the Carden Turboprop in the past 3 weeks. Not a single issue with the powerplant, turned up to 160,000 rpm.

Best regards,
Ron

Anyone looking at a T-28 Trojan with a Turboprop? Very cool looking airplane, there are kits (e.g. Byron, Pica) but I suspect the existing ones are too small for the current generation of turboprops...
