I've seen a photo of an Aztec on floats. I first thought it was a
PhotoShop job but apparently not.


If you want the TSIO 541, get a Duke. The Duke flies very
well and is as tough as nails.

I've read the 541 engines were quite finicky, as I'd expect from a high
horsepower Lyc. in a close cowled airplane. IIRC the same engine was
rated at 425hp in the P-Navajo? I think Dukes are tough looking
planes; Rocket Engineering in Spokane does PT6A conversions for Dukes
(beats an IO-720 IMHO) and had one in the works for a P-Baron, but
there's not mention of it on their site.
