Here's an old film reel video of the Mars. I don't have speakers on this "Library" computer, but I imagine it's got some interesting things to say.

I hope you enjoy it.

....how observant a group you all are, no one asked 'whats with that funny lookin' 206 on floats?'

It's a SOLOY turbine 206 using a Rolls 250 410 hp turbine engine and lots of really cool tricks developed with the help of a retired CESSNA engineer to allow this thing to just about go vertical out of a tennis court. The company is located in the Centralia WA. area and has been doing these conversions for almost 20 years they also offer a twin pack 206, 207, and BONANZA. Look at all the lift generating tricks along the leading edges of the wings, drooped ailerons, etc.check them out on line @ SOLOY.com.

Thats why I'm the Inspector, I look for and at stuff others don't even see-
