Hey Green Goblin you are one of the greatest wind up merchants I have seen on prune. "Metro performance surprising v's a Kingair ", very funny!!! If it weren't for the curvature of the earth a metro would never get airborne. I love your sense of humour.

Groggy.
I may be a windup merchant on the odd occasion but I did compare a Metro to a 1900 not a King Air. If you want to compare it to a King Air however lets just say 3 things, it uses less fuel than a King Air, is faster, has a greater range and can carry twice the payload

Only thing a King Air trumps a metro is land and take off distance which I must admit even a 737 will out do a metro
