The Pilatus PC-6 success is due to providing operators with the flexibility of choice or conversion between roles. These include passenger and/or cargo transport, supply and Para dropping, photographic and aerial survey, forward support, agricultural work, search and rescue, ambulance and a variety of other missions. In addition the Pilatus PC-6  is certified to operate with amphibious or normal floats and also with skis.

The Pilatus PC-6 Porter started with a piston engine. The first PC-6/A Turbo-Porter with French Turboméca Astazou II turboprop power, giving vastly improved performance. First deliveries to Air Alps, a Swiss customer and Wien Alaska Airlines got under way in 1962.

The real breakthrough for the aircraft came in 1964, when the PT6A-6A engine was fitted. The current B2-H4-model was introduced in mid 1985, featuring an enlarged dorsal fin, up-rated shock absorbers, new tail-wheel and airframe reinforcement.

Fairchild-Hiller

Thirty-six armed PC-6/C’s were produced for COIN duties in Vietnam as Fairchild-Hiller AU-23A Peacemaker, they flew their missions in the Royal Thai Air Force. 

CIA

At least 37 PC-6 Turbo Porters were flying for the CIA by Air America, Continental Air Services, Bird & Sons, ICCS Air Services and Air Asia, Tainan. From the beginning Air America used its Turbo Porters in three theaters of South East Asia: Several were assigned to an Air Force contract for use out of Saigon as liaison aircraft. Several were used to support the CIA’s Hmong program  in Laos, and two went to contracts in Thailand, especially to support the Royal Thai Border Police.

Pilatus PC-7

October 19, 2008 by R.Vogelaar · Leave a Comment 

The Pilatus PC-7 Turbo Trainer is based on the piston-powered Pilatus P-3. Since its introduction in 1978, close to 500 aircraft have been sold, with the majority still being in service today. The aircraft’s capability to cover all aspects of basic training including aerobatics, instrument, tactical and night flying, has convinced 20 air forces to select the PC-7 to train professional military pilots.
The Pilatus PC-7 is powered by Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-25A turboprop, and a clear-vision  mounded bubble canopy for the non-pressurized tandem-cockpit. 

The Pilatus PC-7 Mk.II M airframe is based on that of the Pilatus PC-9, but a lower-powered Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-25C turboprop engine variant is used. The cockpit of the Pilatus PC-7 Mk.II M is equipped with a comprehensive tandem-capable VFR/IFR day and night avionics package for navigation, communication and identification using state-of-the-art equipment.
