Thats how we ran them in Botswana Ixixly. We were doing anywhere between 15-20 hops a day.
We would pull onto a concrete pad and feather. Put a barrier between the prop and the cabin then roll a set of stairs up to the cargo door and let the passengers out. The air stairs on the right hand side were a bit hard to use because the exhaust is on that side and it gets a little warm.
Turn around times were also great. Could unload 12 pax, then load another 12 pax, brief them, takeoff checks and be airborne in 4 minutes.
Caravan makes a lot more economic sense with the amount of money they make in between overhauls if they are operated to capacity.
A 1hr flight and you can haul 3000lbs. Try that in a piston twin.
