Cessna
Grand Caravan (C208B) |
|
| A
single Pratt & Whitney Turbine engine powers the Cessna Grand
Caravan in what is unquestionably the most versatile aircraft for operation through out Southern Africa. With seating configurations ranging from six to ten Executive Style and up to twelve Standard Style Seats, the Caravan with its large below the belly, cargo pod is the ideal bush–strip aircraft available. Its reliable turbine engine, low stall speeds,
fixed undercarriage and rugged construction makes it ideal for the
typical African Bush Strips that we service. |
