I too doubt that the Dash 8 is upto this job, not only because it doesn't have the seating capacity, but also I doubt that if it were filled with male passengers (as most of the pax are male) that there'd be much to spare for baggage and freight. I would also like to add that it isn't only the ATP that has tech problems, which have been highlighted during this thread, but I am led to believe that the Dash 8 has been particlurly badly affected by problems for some considerable time, though it has kept Titan very happy.
