THE AIRCRAFT

Meet Pilatus PC-6 B2

The Porter first flew in 1959 with piston power. Turboprop developments became particularly familiar in parachuting and remote-area transport. Its narrow fuselage, high wing and long landing-gear legs make a distinctive practical aircraft.

PC-6 variants differ in engines, limits and equipment. The B2 designation in the simulator is therefore useful, especially when comparing a Turbo Porter with the earlier piston design. Wheel and float options, cabin use and avionics belong to the individual package description.
