Dog onit.....
now you made me climb all over my built in book case in the living room. I found 1/16 inch of dust! Now I have to clean it!!
Well Bernie, I must say that the Texan and the PC9 look the same to me!! The Jane's book does say that the joint Pilatis/Beech venture yeilded a product modified some 70% from the original, but it doesn't appear to be that noticable.
Both the Tex and PC9 have the flat wing center section with dihedral out board of the mains.
The Tacano is obviously not a derivative of the PC9.
Oh, and Daewoo made one that looks like the Tacano!
I don't know if it went into full production.
