Go the mighty Bandit!
What a delight to fly! And a damn sight better looking than a B1900
I can think of many positives - and the odd negative, but all in all a great machine and definitely worthy of its name - Bandeirante - which translates to 'Pioneer' in english (or so I'm told)
A real pity they didn't upgrade them to 4 bladed props and at least another 100SHP, if not more! I reckon there is still a market for them. Maybe embraer will look into re-starting the line with new engines, wing, avionics, higher weights/performance etc like Viking Air is now doing with the Twotter...
May she continue flying for many years to come
