STOL

Gentlemen, many thanks for your assistance. Just out of interest I was wondering if there are any aircraft larger than the present Twin Otters that could land at St Mary's, Isles of Scilly, UK

Decurion

I had thought of the Dash 7. My copy of 'Janes' gives STOL take-off/landing distances of approximately 600 metres. Presumably a runway would need to be longer than this to operate public transport flights? Any idea how much longer?

Thanks in advance
