De Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter series 300 in Air Panama livery

Twin Otter serial number 360 was acquired by Air Panama in 2004 and served there for about 15 years, registered as HP-1509PS. The airframe was repainted presumably around 2009 from a red and blue pin running from back to front, to a blue and red horizon. This livery is the latter.

Air Panama was founded in 1980, and is based at Albrook "Marcos A. Gelabert" International Airport (MPMG). No Twin Otters are serving in current fleet.

Known issues/to do
  • The Air Panama Twin Otters does not have de-icing boots. I have removed the black rubber, however the wing and tail leading edges still have the boot model texture.
  • Engine air intakes should be white.
  • Wheel hubs should be more white.
  • Increase resolution to 4K (need motivation)
