Apparently the sky divers' Twin Otter is undergoing maintenance, so they
brought in a replacement today. This is Serial Number 66, from 1966.

The DeHavilland Twin Otter is loved and respected for its abilities and
its handling. To understand how this was achieved, one must look at the
details that DeHavilland worked into the design. An example pictured
here are the vortex generators that energize the airflow in the corner
between the fin and stabilizer to increase the response of the rudder
and elevator.
