  • Go De Havilland! Still cessna makes a good aircraft. If either company sold one of them to me for 2 dollars, id buy it.

  • The Otter is such a workhorse...

  • The Kodiak is I believe less expensive than the Caravan and way superior for off airport ops. Rugged like the turbine Otter & except you can get one new from the factory in Idaho. Otters are wonderful, but haven't been made for 50 years.

  • Go Otter, The Caravan will just collect a little ice and crash.

  • @born2flyalaska hmm surprised it didn't fall out of the sky. I have heard of caravans having only a small amount of ice on the wings and disaster hits - unfortunately

  • Otter all the way

  • the only problem was that the DHC was slow in the air

  • If you can't tell what they are from that video than you don't need details, you need glasses.

  • Sorry, I can't see the video well enough to identify either aircraft.

    I just know that one got airborne faster than the other. I WOULD

    like to see the details.

  • @TheN6Driver Do a search on the Supervan 900 from Texas Turbines. See what a -12 Garrett does. It'll get off as quick, use less fuel, and go faster. An otter is like an old Corvette. Its cool and does its job with class. But a new ZO6 will spank it in every avenue.

  • Actually, that's 2 million dollars worth of airplanes, plus one Cessna.
