As a matter of interest, given the $$/HP/Hour comparisons, re-engining with turbo-props never made economic sense, just as little turbo-props have never been able to rival piston engines up to 350-400 hp. If it did make economic sense, there would be lots of them out in the big wide world.
I plead guilty. Thanks for setting me straight.
