Flew many hours in the company ATP (80p or skoda
) as SLF between farnborough and warton circa 2000 -2001 and I actually quite liked flying in it - certainly preferred it to the alternative hired in Titan ATR (except the ATR had some lovely trolley dollies
).
As others have posted - they were not built for maintenance,quite usual for british aircraft designs of course - the british designers never seemed to think of making aircraft easy to work on.
