Should we try tontake a page from Delta and park all the turbo props and not replace them?
I'm curious from a passengers standpoint what their feeling maybe? Besides of course a cheap ticket and 1st class ammenities.
Things that make me say hmmm
The Q boards from the front and has a large cabin with full size overheads unlike most turboprops. The 9L Q's are also in the process of installing a first class in the entire fleet. From a passenger standpoint, I think that they are quieter than most jets and you really can't tell they are turboprops unless you look out the window. The big problem is mx, they are hangar queens and a lot of flights get cancelled because of it. Its a good airplane when it works.
