Just my 2 cents;

Worst thing I've ever flown in turbulance, when it's heavy the flap limit speed and the approach speed are very close together, beware.

It is noisy for sure but BMI use 'big' headsets so that makes it quiet

The controls are not very well harmonised, but then I guess it was never designed to be hand flown, (very heavy in roll fairly light in pitch).

Seats are uncomfy (but then it was suppose to be a short hop aircraft).

Nice cockpit, if you like that kind of thing. FMS is a bit limited (no vnav couple to autopilot).

I think possibly one of the best looking aircraft out there

Great set of boys and girls working for them.
