Subject: [Leica] IMG: Some Closeups of the Twin Otter

The Twin Otter jump plane had been up earlier this morning, and was 
awaiting another trip, so it prompted me to get a couple of closeup 
shots not usually available.  The reliable Pratt & Whitney Canada 
turboprop exhaust leaves its mark on the paint of the engine nacelle.

I had not given much thought to the cockpit arrangement, but quickly 
noted that the engine controls are on the ceiling, something I normally 
associate with seaplanes.

Comments and critiques welcomed and appreciated.
