Airplane Porn: PC-6 on 35 Bushwheels

Just thought these pics were worthy of posting. Not too often that you see a Porter on 35's.

That was at the pilatus booth at osh, was talking to the pilot, he flys it for jaars. Let us crawl all over it. It was on small tires then. Said the pavement chews the 35's up quick.

I was tugged out of the display area behind the JAARS Porter. Talked with a couple of the guys while we wandered. Seem like good people...

Lovely plane...

I am just not sure about being all gaga over the phonetics of the tail number :oops:

Maybe it is the guy's ham radio call letters... or initials 8)

What's the standard tire size for a Porter? I saw one parked a while back & took a couple pics- looks like maybe 850x10?
