Wow! Someday I cant wait to see a show like this one of these days!If you were in Alaska tonight, but not outside or in the air, you missed a hell of a show.
This last one has the Alyeska ski resort and the town of Girdwood in it.

Been good. Was out in OTZ the other day when it was ripping but looked like you guys weren't flying.

Saw on another forum talking about single engine turbines. I was blown away.
Harpoon (single engine Baron conversion)
But..... Why?!?! Isn't that sort of just a turbine Bonanza at that point?!

I have soaking up the sun in Vegas last week, so I missed all those good times. But it sounds like quite a storm. Nome was in blizzard mode earlier.

I've got over 10 inches on my deck from just today and it's still coming down.

It's 5 o'clock somewhere
Why put turbines on a C340 or a C421? Because there wasn't an STC for it, so why not? The turbine 36 is halfway decent as long as you suck O2. I've never seen a P-Navajo Turbine conversion, though. It looks kinda neat. I think it has the 'cool' factor like the tubine Aerostar or the jet Aerostar.

Just a guess, but modifying a Baron to a single turbine vs a bonanza to a turbine requires a ton more work...so much so that they can get around the 51% rule and make it an amateur experimental.

Piper made a turbine navajo from the factory. It's called the Cheyenne. The first one's were even called a PA31T before they made them bigger and gave it the PA-42 designation.

Actually, the Turbine Chieftain was the T1040. They only built 24 of them.

I heard about it the next morning, my lady and I were asleep by 830 that night.If you were in Alaska tonight, but not outside or in the air, you missed a hell of a show.

I just thought it was interesting that you'd change a twin piston to a single turboprob... just seems like a lot of work. I fully support the looking cool ideology, just seems to take it to the extreme! But if someone's got the money/time, I agree, why not?!
