The Wiki

Evektor EV-55 Outback is a twin-engine turboprop aircraft that was designed and is built in the Czech Republic by Evektor-Aerotechnik. In 2004 the company announced its plan to design and construct a two-engined utility aircraft that would carry up to 14 passengers or 4000 lb (1800 kg) of cargo, and operate from unimproved fields and at high-altitude airports.

The EV-55 is of conventional high-wing utility design with a T-tail. The prototype aircraft is powered by Pratt & Whitney PT6A-21 turboprop engines, driving four-blade propellers. The wing is mounted atop a nearly-square fuselage, which has five windows per side. The trailing-link tricycle landing gear retracts into the nose section or pods on the lower fuselage.

As Always

A fun little transport plane. One worth an entry in my Regional Carrier Challenge. Stay tuned for a float version, hopefully coming along soon. Please let me know if you have any suggestions for improvement or if there is a vehicle you would like to see recreated. Thank you for stopping by to look, and enjoy your flight!!

    @Sgtk This is a great aircraft with a lot of potential. Im working on a Maritime Patrol platform and I have tested many planes here. Your design looks promising and has a great handling. If it was a little bigger (length ~70ft and wingspan ~85ft) I would consider it seriously as my next maritime patrol and ASW aircraft.

    @Sgtk I noticed. I made the cockpit on Dingo/Lake Dove that way because I just couldn't make a proper one :)
