hey 'S8' no 'doof doof' wog from the western burbs, although prefect analogy with ref to Nissan/Mitsu's etc, how they can hear anything outside gets me!
The B200/350 is the same airframe as far as the cargo door goes, just longer for the 350. The P188 I would doubt will ever make it down under for our ops, too many hassles from the type to be learnt (flying & engineering wise) to it's inablity to operate from rough strips without some form of protection from stones to the fancy props, as well as educating the rd ambulance drivers not to run into that funny little wing stuck out the front. Bang into one of them at a country strip & you could sell off the airframe to some pre school for a cubby house!!!!
SP okay for the B350 also, just would need to be flown'handled diff with such things like a balanced field length that's all.
