I'm with tinpis. Always considered it supplemented a Twotter on thin routes like an Islander does, but the real gem for the regular stuff would always be the 'solid as a brick s...house' 300 Twotter. A stretched or pumped up (3 abreast ?) Islander with the Allisons would have put paid to it as a companion at the time though. 'Course with a 2 pilot rule, the economics of an aircraft with so few revenue seats becomes moot.
