New tow plane in Southern Oregon

[PC6 Driver]

If anyone is interested. We are constructing a 3.2 meter(126")Top Model Pilatus PC6 Porter for aerotowing 4-6+ meter sailplanes. We are installing a 3W twin 106TOC version in the nose. Should do the job quite nicely! If anyone out there is interested in getting in to large scale sailplanes, this is your chance! We really need to get scale soaring going in the Rogue Valley! Feel free to contact me if you are interested(or just curious).

Our Porter will be taking to the skies for the first time, this Sunday @ noon, at Burrill Field.
