Is it just me or has anyone else found them horrendously noisey inside?
I too have heard that the 400 is a bit of a disappointment in the noise department, especially considering it being a modern plane with those fancy 6 bladed props. I find the earlier models to be one of the quietest turboprops around on the inside, at least in cruise, so would have thought all the advancements in noise suppression would have found its way onto the Q400....apparently not though Will have to go for a burn on one and see for myself
