Pilatus PC-6 Porter/Turbo-Porter

The single-engine Swiss STOL utility aircraft Pilatus PC-6 Porter, originally powered by the Lycoming flat six-cylinder engine, made its maiden flight in 1959. Soon an improved Turbo-Porter powered by a turboprop engine followed. Over the years Turbomeca Astazou II, Garret Air Research TPE 331 and ultimately Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A (about 70 % of all PC-6 ever produced) turboprops have been taking this beautiful plane to the sky.
