spent quite a few years roasting my nuts at 350, so 240 ainīt that bad for a change ;-)
jet fuel flow? comparing the Q400 (72 pax) to the F70 (75 pax) iīm using just less than half the fuel per hour that we used on the F70. And considering a TAS difference of 55 knots the time saved on the jet on the shorter sectors, say up to 400nm, isnīt of any significance.
