Igorsky 0 #1 May 2, 2010 Hello. Any advice about an 8way exit from a Turbo Finist? It is a kind of Pilatus Portes but with left hand door, with a small door but a long step outside. Thanks! Igor Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jverley 1 #3 May 4, 2010 I have no personal experience with this plane, but looking at the picture, I'd suggest one of two solutions: 1. Five floaters -- like an otter --, two divers inside the door and one bull-riding the two divers. Bull-rider must stay tight and low on exit. 2. Alternatively, put 6 floaters out, 2 divers. Looks like it would be very crowded especially with video out their as well.John Arizona Hiking Trails Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You could have a tea-party on a step that large, and the rail is huge. Quote2. Alternatively, put 6 floaters out, 2 divers. Looks like it would be very crowded especially with video out their as well. That's what I'd go with. A lot easier than the Porter exit. Using standard Otter exit terminology: Put the inside rear outside, and move the rear-rear further back on the step. This gives you, inside: inside front and inside center. Outside: Front-front (maybe on strut?), front, outside center, inside rear, outside rear, rear-rear. Camera person is going to have to be right at the back of the step. Should come off nicely if the stackup is practiced a few times on the ground first. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
