Video: Twin Otter - Canadian Superhero! (No Cape Required)

 I've been experiencing some serious Twin Otter desire the last few days, and this old video just makes me want one all the more!  It's probably the most versatile all-around superhero airplane that doesn't drag its tail.  And while I'm a little slow figuring this out, I just learned you can now order up a brand new Twin Otter from Viking Air!

 Viking purchased the rights to all of the old de Havilland Canada aircraft, and the DHC-6 Twin Otter is the first one that they've put back into production.  This new and improved aircraft is called the Series 400 Twin Otter, and Viking actually has a backlog now that takes them into 2014.  

 I don't know about you, but in my mind there's something very good and right about a world that has Twin Otters being built once again : )
