Thanks for your valuable input BANK ANGLE 50..........
FYI I have flown four types of RTPS including the METRO..
They are the Dash 8, F27, and Andover... So what i am saying is. what the Metro was built for it has exceeded expectations. It was by far the most reliable TP I have ever driven. Like all planes it has it draw backs. But for speed, ease of operation,they are in a class of its own. How many TPS of that era can hold a S/L cabin to 15 000ft huh? All on 600lbs an hour..... given oil prices.. I bet most airlines wish they still had em at the moment
You sound like turbine. always whining. You seem to have a very narrow minded opinion on something you have never flown. I am sure you are one of these people who has an opinion on everything and has always been there and done that better than everyone else. And to say "all metro pilots are know it alls"... we could use you here in NZ to lead the Moari party or even better you could join the Green party, wear roman sandles with socks and have yours pants so far up your backside they would be around your head...
Happy Days
