July 31, 20223 yr In the 1990s I flew one for the better part of 2000 hours in Manitoba, Canada. Great work horse. Could carry lots of ice. In Canada during day VFR you could fly it single pilot which I did lots of doing freighters sometimes into gravel strips of 2200'.At night &/or IFR two crew were required. Back then in northern Manitoba most community strips were gravel and there was no vasis or papi. Primitive gps receivers (compared to today) were just coming widely available and they were not cheap. I used a garmin 55 then. Decent power with the -34 engines. This addon is imho well done. I enjoy taking it for a flight from time to time. Never been able to find a Skyward Aviation livery for it.
