    I love the way the pilot was so considerate of the engine. Never went to full throttle all the way through the take off. Obviously respecting the age and cost of an engine rebuilt if he wrecked it.

    Is it just me or does the Otter just look wrong on wheels but so right on floats?

    The pilot should revisite the operation manual for better starting procedure. And a safe operation learned at Trans-Provincial Airline in Price Rupert, Canada, operating most of the time over the ocean, was to maintain take-off power until reaching 85 mph in case of a sudden and complete loss of power. It is the best way to maintain at least some control if you do not have any power. This will help you land the plane instead of crashing it. The engine is built to give you such power for such period of time and he is less loaded with less pitch and more RPM. Think about it... Also avoid banking the plane after take-off without reaching a very safe speed. Have a safe flight.

    So, There are traditional radial engine Otters, and turboprop Otters? So like those planes that Kenmore Air has, that look like this one from the windshield back , but are turboprop, Those are Otters too, right? Wrong?

    What a great air craft.... It's bringing my memories in '60, me (when I was 6 years) & my family fly from Java to Borneo (Banjarmasin) due to my father duty. It's time that I never forget, usually me fly with DC3 but that time we fly with Otter, beautiful flight. 💕
