AgCat with Unusual Engine

Hi all,

this picture of an AgCat puzzles me. The engine looks like a Lycoming one as very often used in sportsplanes. But the big exhaust pipes point to show a turbine. The Schweizer AgCat has one, but its nose is narrow like the one of a WWII inline engine fighter. Googling for a speciality showed no success.

If you know it, please tell the correct denomination. Thank you for every answer!

Regards, RT

A trainee spammer who, being so busy with her knitting, forgot to attach the hyperlink?

I spy spam, here and the Spitfire survivors thread.

I’ve never understood the point of this sort of spam. Is it me?

Still no report button.

Hi all,

Oracal’s hints with the turbine types lead to an aircraft named Frakes Aviation Turbo Cat. At least one version shows voluminous air intakes on the nose sides which correspond with my picture. So that it is. Thank you oracal.

The exhaust stacks indicate it’s a turboprop.

Either a PT6 or a TPE331. Quality of the photo is not good enough to distinguish.
