Am flying a lot of bush jaunts these days, especially in PNG. This aircraft
video is captured in Papua New Guinea & the aircraft is truly remarkable, imo:

FS2004/FSX Aerospace FU24-950 Series Fletcher. The Fletcher was designed specifically for low level aerial topdressing operations in New Zealand. This aircraft is a a 550 hp Walter Turbine powered version. Package includes fully animated and detailed virtual cockpit, topdressing effects and paint schemes for Air Services, Marlborough Aerial Work and Super Air. By Deane Baunton.

Edit: This is the same as srg's direct link above I see.
The PAC 750 is from the same stable - rugged STOL workhorses, extremely manouevrable
 
I had thought that was a Fletcher, the passenger model.

They are highly regarded in NZ, but noted as being a bit different looking.

Same looking wings.

Thanks for all of the great information given here, fellas. :) The time you've spent to help navigate me in the right direction is sincerely appreciated. My post would have been clearer had the "X" not been forgotten after "FS" in the title. Am happy to see that this magnificent aircraft has not gone unoticed by developers.

Indeed, she is different looking, though function reigns supreme over form, imo. Am quite fond of switching seats, flying a variety of different planes suited for rough, short & angled airstrips across Papua New Guinea. The variety helps to spice up screenshot forum posts. Simple, durable, reliable... great & needed qualities for a bush aircraft in PNG & like places.

Lionheart's Quest Kodiak with Bob's lovely bare naked skins are my latest joy: http://forums.flightsim.com/vbfs/showthread.php?t=202919
Sometimes there is more to FS bush flying than hauling in bibles & beans while hauling out fair trade coffee products. :)
