= PORTER-ABILITY
THE PILATUS PC-6 PORTER HAS BECOME A LEGENDARY AIRCRAFT,
KNOWN AROUND THE WORLD SIMPLY AS “THE PORTER”.
ITS UNIQUE SHORT TAKE-OFF AND LANDING (STOL) CAPABILITIES,
RELIABILITY AND VERSATILITY IN ALL WEATHER AND TERRAIN
CONDITIONS HAVE ESTABLISHED THE PC-6’S REPUTATION AS A
RUGGED UTILITY AIRCRAFT.

CAPABILITY
THE PORTER’S UNMATCHED STOL PERFORMANCE IS ONE OF ITS KEY CAPABILITIES, PROVIDING A GREAT DEAL OF FLEXIBILITY AND ALLOWING OPERATION OF THE PC-6 WHERE ACCESS FOR OTHER AIRCRAFT IS IMPOSSIBLE. OUTSTANDING CAPABILITY IN ROUGH CONDITIONS IS ACHIEVED THROUGH LOW-PRESSURE TIRES, TWIN-CALLIPER DISC BRAKES AND AN UNDERCARRIAGE WITH HIGH BUMP ABSORPTION. WITH ITS HIGH WING AND PROPELLER GROUND CLEARANCE, THE PC-6 IS MUCH LESS EXPOSED TO DAMAGE FROM ROUGH AIRSTRIPS THAN AIRCRAFT WITH A CONVENTIONAL NOSEWHEEL-TYPE UNDERCARRIAGE.
THE PORTER IS FULLY CAPABLE OF OPERATING FROM DIFFERENT TYPES OF UNPREPARED, ROUGH AND SHORT AIRSTRIPS, IN REMOTE AREAS, AT HIGH ALTITUDES AND IN ALL CLIMATES.
YEARS OF OPERATING EXPERIENCE, COMBINED WITH SELECTED COMPONENTS WITH A PROVEN RECORD CONTINUE TO GIVE THE TURBO PORTER AN EXCELLENT REPUTATION FOR RELIABILITY. THE EASE AND SIMPLICITY WITH WHICH THE PC-6 CAN BE MAINTAINED IS A FUNDAMENTAL FEATURE, AS IT OFFERS EXCELLENT ACCESSIBILITY, RUGGED COMPONENTS, INTERCHANGEABILITY, BASIC SKILL AND MAINTENANCE MANNING LEVELS AND MINIMUM DOWNTIME.
A SIMPLE BUT SOLID CONSTRUCTION, PROVEN SYSTEMS AND FEATURES, COMBINED WITH PRECISION WORKMANSHIP RESULT IN THE HIGHEST RELIABILITY AND LOWEST MAINTENANCE POSSIBLE. NO MATTER WHETHER HIGH AND HOT, OR LOW AND SNOW – ANYWHERE, ANYTIME YOU CAN RELY ON THE PC-6 PORTER AS A HIGH QUALITY, LIFE-LONG INVESTMENT!
RELIABILITY
ONE OF THE REASONS FOR THE GREAT POPULARITY OF THE PC-6 IS ITS VERSATILITY. WITH MINIMUM EFFORT, THE PORTER CAN BE CONVERTED FOR VARIOUS MISSIONS: HAVING JUST OPERATED AS A PARA PORTER DROPPING PARACHUTISTS, THE AIRCRAFT CAN BE AIRBORNE AGAIN IN A MATTER OF MINUTES, BEING USED AS A PLATFORM FOR HIGH QUALITY AERIAL PHOTO-GRAPHY OR AS A BREATHTAKING SIGHTSEEING FLIGHT WITH A GLACIER LANDING …
WHETHER AS A WORKHORSE, A PLATFORM FOR AERIAL SURVEILLANCE, AIR AMBULANCE OR AS A PARACHUTING OR PASSENGER AIRCRAFT, THE PORTER DELIVERS THE VERSATILITY TO PERFORM ANY ROLE THAT COMES ITS WAY.

SEARCH AND RESCUE SURVEILLANCE PATROL BORDER CONTROL
Various issues such as Search And Rescue (SAR), border patrol, smuggling, the trade of goods, geographic analysis and intelligence call for aerial surveillance. With its outstanding flight characteristics and the standard floor hatch, the PC-6 Porter is an extremely efficient and cost-effective platform to carry out a wide range of surveillance missions. Various systems such as FLIR, LIDAR, digital cameras and other optical platforms can be integrated into the aircraft without design changes at the customer’s wish.

LASER

The Porter is an extremely stable platform, making it ideal for SAR, aerial photo-graphy, survey and laser photogrammetric and scanning operations. The Porter’s versatility extends from low-level flight in narrow valleys to a service ceiling of 25,000 ft. With the new 250 Amp power distribution system and the two separa-tely controlled mission busses, a camera and/or a search or scanning sensor head can be operated without any in-flight effects on the avionics and instrument systems. An oil collector system and exhaust deflector can be installed for special mission operations to protect the camera lens and all sensors heads.
The PC-6 is one of the world's favorite aircraft for para dropping.
PARACHUTING
From an economical, organizational and safety point of view, the operation of the Porter with 10 parachutists has proven to be an ideal solution. The number of companies and drop zones operating the PC-6 is still growing.
Operated on both seaplane and amphibian floats in several countries, the Turbo

Porter has proved to be a successful seaplane. The floats modification is covered by a Supplemental Type Certificate (STC), held by Wipaire, Inc. Floats Type: Wipline 6100.

CONSTRUCTION & FUSELAGE
Although rugged and utilitarian, the PC-6 Turbo Porter is a high quality, life-long investment. With its high wing and propeller ground clearance, and its undercarriage with high bump absorption, the Turbo Porter is much less susceptible to damage from rough airstrips than aircraft with a conventional nosewheel-type undercarriage.
The design uses conventional semi-monocoque construction techniques (frames, ribs, stringers, reinforcements and skin panels) for the wing, fuselage and empennage. The primary structure is built of 2024 aluminium alloy sheet and extrusion.
These features combined with precision workmanship provide a high degree of interchangeability as well as the easy replacement of parts. All metal components are protected against corrosion by priming, painting, and plating/enameling before a tough polyurethane-based external paint is applied, protecting the Turbo Porter in all types of climate and conditions.
The fuselage is equipped with a hinged door on both sides of the cockpit and a large sliding door on both sides of the cabin. Optional trapdoors can be fitted in the centre of the cabin floor. Each trapdoor can take a load of 150 kg (330 lb). The trapdoors can be opened and closed in flight by the pilot.

CABIN VOLUME AND PAYLOAD
The Pilatus PC-6 has earned its reputation as a workhorse with a cabin volume of more than three cubic meters and a total payload of over 1,000 kg. A large sliding door on both sides of the aircraft allows easy access to the cabin for loading and removal of freight. When extra space is needed, the passenger seats can be quickly removed and stowed in the additional seat stowage area behind the cabin. The standard floor hatch enables a platform for a wide range of surveillance functions without the necessity of any design changes.

TECHNICAL OVERVIEW



most reliable and thoroughly proven power plant in its class. The PC-6’s PT6A-27 is an advanced design of this engine family, with a thermodynamic power rating of 650 shaft horsepower (SHP), flat-rated to 550 SHP at take-off.
PROPELLER
The propeller is a Hartzell HC-B3TN-3D three-bladed (and on STC basis, a Hartzell HC-D4N-3P four-bladed), fully reversing and feathering constant-speed type, driven by the free turbine through a reduction gearbox. The propeller is equipped with an optional anti-icing facility.
COCKPIT
The PC-6 cockpit is designed for single-pilot operation with a straightforward employment of standard instruments. Electrical and avionic equipment can be easily adjusted to customer requirements. The cockpit featured here shows one of many instrument variations:
–
The left instrument panel contains the essential pilot flight instruments, standby instruments and autopilot control panel.
–
The center instrument panel consists of engine instruments, central advisory and warning system,and diverse avionic equipment such as Audio Panel GMA430, COM/NAV/GPS1 (GNS 430), Multifunction Display (KMD 850) with WX Radar (RDR 2000) control and a COM/NAV2 Radio (KX165A).
–
The right instrument panel is equipped with fuel control instruments, ADF (KR87), DME (KN62A), Mode S Transponder (GTX 330) and the system’s control switches.
