tennyson Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Oh dam! That looks like an old DC-3 with the new engine mod. They're turboprops, aren't they? "Well, everything forward of the main spar, looks ok, Captain......." Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Well, everything forward of the main spar, looks ok, Captain......." Frank Yes I was looking at that too - certainly looks like turbo props on a DC3 (What on earth were they think to deface the good old DC 3 with turbo props?)

Divot Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 It's a Basler BT-67 Those turboprop engines make it look strange compared to the old engines on the DC-3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tennyson Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 If I remember right the old Dac engines were the same engines in the Caribou (which is another current thread on this forum at the moment). They leaked engine oil by the gallons and we used to wipe the cowls down after every flight. Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
