Looking a good start KC , there is a 5 bladed turbo prop running Pratt and Whitney PT-6 , even a tri-motor variant

Interesting. Looks like the LH motor might be about to loose some blades!

[Dion500]

Yeah, dont think the left engine took well to its new props. Looks interesting though

There was one in real life, i have some pics in a book somewhere. If i remember correctly, it had 2 Rolls Royce Nene Turbojets in pods on the underside of the wings.
Might have to go hunting through my books now,.............
