"She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts, kid. I've added some special modifications myself"

Harrison owns a DHC-2 Beaver (N28S). He uses it regularly for impromptu fly-ins at remote airports, and bush strips.

His first encounter with this airplane was in Six Days Seven Nights, where he had to fly one. He felt interested and soon purchased a model.

Here are some details about the plane:

The DeHavilland Canada DHC-2 Beaver is one of the most famous bush planes in the world. After World War II, de Havilland Canada was looking to produce a plane suited to operations in the extremes of the Canadian north.

The Beaver has become a symbol of the Canadian north, and has since found use as a bush plane all over the world; the international ICAO designation for flight plans is DHC2.
The type is used for aerial application; (crop dusting and aerial topdressing), and has been widely used by armed forces as a utility aircraft; the U.S. Army Air Corps purchased several hundred. Nine DHC-2s are still in service with the US Air Force Auxiliary (Civil Air Patrol) for search and rescue. A Royal New Zealand Air Force Beaver supported Sir Edmund Hillary's expedition to the South Pole.
