N22 not too bad, N24 not so good.
Fuel gauges (4 off) with a face the size of a 5 cent piece.
Some instrument gauges had 1/4 increments, others 1/5.
Sharp edges every where, so skinned knuckles were the norm.
N22 had infinite flap selections available from 0 to 40 degrees. N24 was known to be longitudinally unstable about the Flap 20 range, therefore only 3 flap positions, 0, 10 for take-off and 40 for landing. However in about 1994/5 after another airworthiness scare, the aircraft (N24) was limited to Flap 10, which gave a very small speed margin when flying an approach in bumpy conditions. Flap 10 max speed being only just above Vapp.

Reason: don't think there was a flap 5, changed to Flap 10.
