The DHC-6 Twin Otter revolutionized short takeoff and landing aviation as the world's most successful utility transport aircraft. First flown on July 20, 1965, it was a high-wing twin-turboprop that could carry 20 passengers or 3,800 pounds of cargo while operating from strips as short as 1,000 feet. With a wingspan of 65 feet and powered by two Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A engines, 844 units were manufactured by De Havilland Canada from 1965 to 1988.
