It departed Victoria, Canada, 10th May 2014 on its delivery flight as C-GNVA. Will become 9M-SSE. Photos on http://twinotterspotter.blogspot.co.uk/ Geoff The delivery flight of this Twin Otter is taking some time with various delays enroute. On the 26th May it had only just reached Magadan-Sokhol in Russia. So still some way to go before arriving in Kota Kinabalu. Geoff Edited May 26, 2014 by Geoff R.

Geoff R. 0 Report post Posted June 2, 2014 Non-stop TPE-BKI? It is about 3:30 on B738 at about M 0.78. Wonder how long it will take on the DHC-6 and the route taken. TPE-BKI is just under 1200 nm. Maximum zero payload range is quoted as 799 nm, so definately ferry tank/s required with at least 600 kg of extra fuel plus reserves. For an earlier delivery the TPE-BKI leg is quoted as taking just over 8 hours. The full route was as follows: YYJ-ANC 1175 nm 10th May ANC-DYR 899 nm 18th May DYR-GDX 803 nm 26th May GDX-KHV 871 nm 27th May KHV-GMP 754 nm 28th May GMP-TPE 799 nm 29th May TPE-BKI 1182 nm 1st June Total: 6483 nm Geoff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
