VH-KDK Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Orbx Content:Alaska Mesh, Orbx Partner product:SoFly WPP, Northern Sky Studio PATK Talkeetna Airport. Flying over a full Susitna River approaching Talkeetna. The plane is the very recognsable Britten Norman BN-2A-3 Trislander. A plane that I am having a lot of enjoyment out of at the moment. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulb Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 A nice scenic shot Martyn . I have often wondered why such a small aircraft has three engines. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Paul. It is basically a stretched BN-2 Islander so it needed the additional power for the extra payload and could carry up to 18 people including crew. I think it was a very ingenious design. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Sawyer Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Cool shot Martyn, it looks like that engine might just snap off the tail. Amazing feat of engineering. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sniper31 Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 It sure is an odd duckling of an aircraft, but from what I have read about, it flies well and is very sturdy and good in bad weather. A very nice Alaskan shot Martyn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
