With respect Morno,
Its not that the aircraft is inherently dangerous, on the contrary it has its good points and its bad points like any aircraft, HOWEVER, IMHO I just dont think it is the right aircraft for RFDS.
I have several reasons for taking this opinion, but probably the most critical one is the large amount of night flying in very remote areas.
Just my two cents worth.
(BTW, my opinion is garnered from years of operating said aircraft and not that of an armchair expert).
