you fly multiple planes alex or just one? pics would be cool

[RCC8611]

Dam sounds like you have a pretty cool job man!

[OVRBST]

I just fly one kind. We have 32 of them here in Portsmouth. The airplane's nothing too special. It's a Pilatus PC12 TurboProp (Jet engine that pushes a prop), and costs 4 million dollars. We do operate into some exciting areas (grass strips, gravel, SHORT runways, etc..)

Here's some pictures off the manufacturer's website.

alex did you happen to fly into nashua airport today? saw the same plane as in the first pic coming in. sounded cool too

Why does it seem like the pilot gets the raw deal with the seating in there. They got nice leather you got what looks like 80's seat covers..lol

[OVRBST]

Wasn't me Kev. We have 32 of these planes, so it was probably another crew.

As for the seats, the fronts are actually more confortable. It's sheepskin wrapped memory foam. The rears are just leather covered foam (traditional seats). Not as much room up front, but none the less not too bad

that window looks broken in the last pictures


sooooo alex ummm when you going to let me on to the runway

[:Quirk:]

alex, you dont happen to work with Don Davidson do you?

[OVRBST]

I'll let you on the runway when they let me on the runway... without a plane that is. The window does look broken, but it's just a reflective window shade thats a little crinkled up.


I don't think so Tyler. Don't think I've heard that name. Does he work for Alpha? Maybe just fly out of PSM?
