Our aircraft is a turbine powered Pilatus Porter PC-6. It can take 9 skydivers  up to the altitude of 13000 ft within approx. 15 minutes.

The outstanding features of the small transporter are: extremely short take off and landing distances (a football field is sufficient), remarkable climbing performance, high robustness, large additional load in relation to the dead weight. The PC-6 Porter is usable for almost each function and indicates an impressing area of operations: Pax and material transport, medical and emergency service, measurement and photo flights, with spraying equipment for agricultural work and for fire fighting. It can land equipped with skis on glaciers and with floats on water and it's an ideal airplane for parachuting.
