Just received the following e-mail from Vincent regarding the PT-6 powered
Moose he's working on. I uploaded pictures and documents to the archive
site also.

Hello Mike,
it has been a long time. About the V8, i'm still working on improving it
until it is to my taste...Being an airline pilot, i will never sell
something wich is not safe... Coming along... But now i have something that
will interest you and many guys for sure.. We never spoke about it because
we wanted to keep it secret until it is ready.. We are pretty much now and
we will be in Oskosh. what would you think about the first Pratt & Whitney
PT-6-20 450 SHP Murphy T-Moose!!!Best known and reliable turbine. we will
offer a firewall forward package including the cowling that fit the Moose...
Talking about 155MPH in cruise ON FLOATS!!! and above 2500fpm climb... The
engine weight only 286 pounds and has 5000 hours to go on condition. Only
for about double the price of a radial MP-14 kit! Cruising at 40 mph faster!
Watch out for an amazing performer! No more problems with vibrations(cracks)
and with the speed gain and price of fuel, the average cost per mile will be
identical! Reversing prop! Our Demo will be for sale and ready to deliver at
the end of show season (october). All of that for half the price of a Turbo
Beaver!!! and full EFIS (blue mountains 3 screens) ,auto-pilot, wipline 4000
amphibs and more!!!
Let me know what you think about that... The price of the firewall forward
package will be 98 500$ (including cowlings and everything you need to bolt
it on and run) The price of our demo will be 495 000$ US.
cheers,
Vincent
