Good idea, I saw it in many "classic" Porters. 👍

And as English is not my first language, I learnt a new word today: Pugnacity.

Thanks for that!!

What is "pugnacity" in Dutch?   That way, I will know at least one Dutch word.

As for the PC-6, this looks really neat!

Pugnacity isn't a word. Pugnaciousness would be better. Deepl Translate suggests  'strijdlustigheid' but your tonsils would get in a right old mess trying to pronounce it!

I'm not Dutch, I'm Norwegian. But I do understand "strijdlustigheid". It's quite easy to understand and pronounce. 

Pugnaciousness I've never heard of until this thread. 😅

Pugnaciousness

I'm over 80 and I may have used it once in my lifetime. Come to think of it, this week was the first time. 😃

Thanks for all the recommendations in this thread.  It is a delight.  The interactive checklist is great fun.  The sounds are terrific.   And it handles and lands beautifully (with none of the squirreling I see with some other birds - gotta remember to turn the tail lock off, though!)

Will definitely go in my NeoFly hanger.

Here is the Engine Sound update! 😃👍

 

I have the Milviz Porter, and I love it, but I will buy this one as well, this one looks even better with steam gauges and the GTN-750.

They seem quite different.

Unless your on a super limited Flight Sim budget it seems quite viable to own both.

@OSM Please tell me that you will add external fuel tanks! (Maybe as an option?) Please!

Hi xender

Unfortunately we will not add external fuel tanks. First, we don't have any reliable data about external fuel tanks operation and influence on a flight model. Second, even without external fuel tanks PC-6 can fly 3+ hours.
