I found these bush flyin group of dudes on you tube in the southern US called the flying cowboys and saw one guy, Mike Patey converted an old Polish PZL104 Wilga into a turbopro PT6 conversion, I watched darn near every video Mike and his group made and was fascinated by this beast called Draco, Check out the video. It sure would be cool to see this in FSX!

Great video, thanks for posting. Draco is an awesome machine! I also like the spirit of his builder.

Man, I miss Oshkosh.
