Don't know how you would define one, but:

Bombardier Dash 8 - Q400.

If you want to, or have to fly a turbo prop, that is the best one I have flown.

EFIS screen flight deck. Powerful engines, superb props, great performance. Smooth and quiet (especially when the NVS system is working*), APU.

But with conventional yoke controls, so you actually learn how to fly before going onto FBW.

Try Flybe.


*The active noise and vibration reduction system consisting of a ring of weights in the fuselage which are activated to oppose propellor vibration. I think it was called NVS?
