You guys make me laugh.
Why do you think that number of posts on PPRune = experience in aviation?
I would have said that it's inversely proportional, myself...
Those of us who actually fly for a living, and
have a life once they go home, have probably got more relevant stuff to say about life as a pilot than the sad gits who sleep with their Jepps every night....
When you can produce something other than "gut feeling" about the relative safety of PC12's compared to King Air's, let me know...
Bottom line is that I wouldn't try to claim I'm an expert about an aircraft I've never flown...
I've got 1500+ hours in PC12's... and 3000+ hours in piston twins.
I know what I feel more comfortable in
Wally, how many PC12 hours have you got?
0.00?
That's what I thought.
Have you noticed I've never made a comment about B200?
Cos I've never flown one, so I won't pretend I'm an expert.
Fantastic aircraft, no doubt.
But, you know what?
Bit of respect wouldn't go astray...
Good luck to you for not having to embrace new technology, but don't insult me and the rest of us because we are prepared to....
We're all on the same team!
Good man.
