Bush planes can navigate through tough terrain and land in remote areas that commercial planes can only dream of. They can take off and land on short runways - perfect for getting to those hard-to-reach destinations. However, today we're focusing on the creme-de-la-creme of bush planes, particularly those with high price tags. While most small bush planes range from 80,000 to 100,000 US dollars, these models can cost you an arm and a leg (or maybe even a kidney) thanks to their premium features such as high-end engines, STOL capabilities, and other customisations. So, buckle up and get ready for an adventure as we dive into the technical specifications, performance, and design features of these expensive bush planes.

If I could afford it, I would go with the Kodiak 100. I think it’s more nimble than the others and the payload is similar. I would be Curious whether you could get the larger cargo door that the Kodiak 900 offers.

[@AviationFederation]

The Kodiak 100 is indeed a popular choice among pilots for its nimble performance and comparable payload capacity and fuselage dimensions. As for the larger cargo door offered in the Kodiak 900, it's worth checking with the manufacturer or authorized dealers if that feature can be customized or retrofitted. While it may involve additional costs and considerations, exploring the possibility of incorporating the larger cargo door could definitely enhance the versatility and utility of the aircraft for your specific needs.

OMG - Come on... what's the most important thing with a bush (STOL) plane? Minimum Takeoff and Landing Distances!!🤷🏻‍♂️ You mention nothing! 😖Michael 🇦🇺

[@AviationFederation]

You're absolutely right! When it comes to bush planes, minimum takeoff and landing distances are indeed crucial. But since this was intended simply as a quick overview video, we just focused on their most basic specs and asking prices.

[@SpatialGuy77]

@@AviationFederation TO/L distances are the most basic things. They should be quoted on every aircraft but ESPECIALLY STOL aircraft. It's just crazy, I like your stuff, but 👎 for this one! Michael 🇦🇺

[@MrShehin]

There look like fying truck or microbuses

[@AviationFederation]

That's an amusing observation! Indeed, bush planes often have a rugged and robust appearance. This unique look is a testament to their capability to handle rough terrain, short takeoff and landing distances, and carry substantial loads.
