Manufacturing

Basler Turbo Conversions is Building the Future
 
Basler Turbo Conversions takes the legendary DC-3 and puts it through the industry's most extensive remanufacturing process. Built into each airframe is the sum of our knowledge and our proprietary processes, along with state-of-the-art components, world-class Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-67R engines and Hartzell propellers.
 

The BT-67 modernization includes a complete airframe overhaul, aerodynamic improvements, structural modifications that increase strength and improve performance, and new systems that improve reliability.

All changes are certified through extensive testing to FAR Part 25, the same tough criteria applied to the latest generation of commercial jet liners. The resulting product, the BT-67, defies standard comparison. It is unquestionably the most highly evolved and proven transport system in its class, both in terms of productivity and cost effectiveness.

The end product is an essentially new aircraft with its gross take-off weight increased to 28,750 and an unbeatable combination of simplicity, reliability, and operating performance.
