Notes
=====
The DHC-6 Twin Otter flys more like the real thing. It has
two turboprops that generates 625 shp each. Total maximum
takeoff weight is 12,500 lbs. That should allow for 1 pilot
and 14-20 passengers. Maximum cruise speed is about 180 kts
or 210 mph. This aircraft has excellent STOL capabilities.
You can land anywhere a smaller Cessna 172/152 can. Takeoff
distances are short especially using flaps. This is a great
little plane for short hops into difficult territory. I use
for short routes at Noble Air.
The Mitsubishi MU-2M Marquise is a twin turboprop aircraft.
It is used much by the Lifeguard agencies. Each engine
generates 712 shp each. Total maximum takeoff weight is
around 11,000 lbs. Maximum cruise speed is about 236 kts or
280 mph. Accommodations is for 1 pilot and about 10-16
passengers. This aircraft is also used as a STOL utility
plane. Though, the STOL capabilities are not as good as
the Twin Otter.
Since the Twin Otter is a little more rugged in the SFO hub
at Noble Air we use it for routes that have short runways at
high altitudes such as those in Oregon and Washington. The
Mitsubishi is faster and a little more comfortable so we use
it for commuter flights within California and Nevada.
!!!!These file have only been tested with FS5.1 CD!!!!
