PC-12 Proto Pics

[elekwind]

Hi Guys

In a previos post (Learjet 45 to PC-12) I told you guys that I decided to go with the PC-12 because it is such a versatile aircraft. I mentioned that I will start constructing the shell. I'm basically done with the prototype and start construction on the real thing soon.The prototype has given me a pretty good I idea of what I would need and also some more ideas, so it has been of great help. I added 2 pics of the prototype but I promise to keep you guys updated. I took the pics with my cellphone, sorry for the quality. Take a look.

Looking forward to your website or Blog Ralton.

Here is a picture from Pilatus of the skeletal structure for the fuselage. It might assist in your outside structure build.

The Pizza 12 is a great airplane. I have flown in one a few times. I am especially impressed with it's climbing ability. Its almost like a sportscar...

Looking forward to seeing your guys projects as they progress.

LOL, My brother flew the PC-12 for years, Medivac, it was fun, until he got on the Super King-Air with the Proline 21 in it, and now the Falcon 900B.

I may have a bunch of PC-12 checklists and stuff, If I can locate them, I will let you guys know.

No promises though, I am not sure what I have

Excellent that would be great Trevor.

Funny that the RFDS here are going over to the "Pizza 12" from the B200. Probably cheaper than the new B350's.

It's my ambition to fly one myself. Only $1500AUD per hour to hire, and that's after about 30 hours of conversion to be certified!!! EASY
