I don't think you can use "nice looking" and "Pilatus Porter" in the same sentence
However......thanks for the HU AD

No.. it's definitely a case of function over form!

They offered the Airtruk with a two passenger seat module in place of the hopper.
No one bought it
QANTAS evaulated it, but decided to buy A.380's instead...all the ugliness but a slight increase in capacity

I had a quick go with PIglet's Porter last week, and it really is a worthwhile download for anyone with FSX. A great VC, small turboprop sounds that I think are best I've ever heard, and incredible STOL performance. Maybe a tad
too incredible; it seemed to almost hang on its prop at one point.
Otherwise, terrific stuff from Tim.
