It's just that he wanted 6 seats! :-)
1000lb load is all very well, but in my book that doesn't equate to 6 adults! 600kg would be nearer if "normal" male adults are called for. Would only be enough for 5 of me! :-) Paul "Peter Hovorka" wrote in message ... Hi Paul, the PC-12/45 will load about 600 kg ( ~ 1300 lb ) with full fuel and without seats to be taken out. Correct me if I'm wrong, just iirc-data. Regards, Peter |

OTOH, you could just buy a plane that has smaller fuel tanks and lose the option of flying further if you have only a small load. |

I am waiting on my Moose kit #and is will have the large tanks! With the
large tank option I anticipate being able to go fishing from place to place for an extended period without returning to an airport. The Moose is evidently proving very popular since I have been assigned serial number 241. Mike MU-2 "C J Campbell" wrote in message ...
