A little less power! In practice when I've flown the 2 in hot, humid climates it's 3 or 4 passengers less power. I've experienced few problems with glass cockpits and other than that spares for 76s cost the same.

It's not a matter of where your colleagues are from, it's a case of what the aircraft can do and in my old company the older A++ and Cs spent more time on the ground than the C+s, cost more to maintain and carried much smaller payloads. I believe that even a Bell 407 can carry more and at a lower price.
