2022 Quotes:
Andre, Pilot for C-GMLO, 510P Forestry Pilot:
I am an older pilot and I have flown just about everything in and outside of Ag. I was "delighted" with this aircraft on my first flight in it. That has never happened before in my career and says a great deal about the aircraft! I immediately noticed its stability and pilot friendliness. It was a true joy to fly and I hope to do the 2022 forestry contract in a Thrush.
Gary Kurys, Owner of C-FXOC, 2021:
I love, love, love this plane. My wife Karen is right, I should have done this 10 years ago. I would be happy to talk to anyone about my experience with the plane and my buy experience with Yorkton Aircraft. Just call me!
