Since we can now load much bigger files I uploaded the original video in a separate file titled "Landing Grand Island, NE with Cessna Caravan Hi-Res"

Much better quality!

how fast can this plane fly?  300 knots?

[Webleys]

@cantroos We flight plan for 160 kts true airspeed (about 145 kts indicated) and the never exceed speed is 175 kts, which can only be achieved in a descent.

It's not very fast but it hauls a lot and has no bad habits. It's a great airplane!

do you have to have your atp license to fly this?

[Webleys]

@poptartpencil

No, you can fly it with a private license for personal or business use, you need a commercial license and instrument rating to fly it for hire (cargo or paying passengers).

It's as easy to fly as a Cessna 172, and more stable!
