Clandestino,

Yeah, know where you come from - hopefully able to call meself a 737-pilot come tuesdays LST

However, I liked the ATR quite a lot (but wouldn't describe myself as emotionally attached ) - it's a tough plane that will allow you to operate into & out of a lot of interesting places. Doesn't handle very well, mind you, but in a strong gusting x-wind on a 30-m-wide wet rwy, it does what it says on the tin & allows you ample margins for operation in marginal conditions. So a fan all the same.

And I hope not to get emotionally attached to the Boeing either

Brgds,
Empty
