Turboprop time - "get out as fast as you can", out of fashion etc.. Absolute rubbish. Talk about bad advice!

My current employer uses tired old turboprops and within the last six months have had people leave for Jet2, BA, Flydubai to name a few. Most of these people have spent at least four years with the company.

Some of the best flying and experience you get is from flying Turboprops, where you tend to get exposed to more non-precision type flying rather than the automated vectored ILS to ILS type stuff with jets.
