the q400 is going to suck in Newark. It is a good idea granted but the operator sucks, there is no where to park it with its comparatively large wingspan, the port authority doesnt like the idea and had previously banned turboprops (except grandfather clause), I also don't see it utilizing 11/29 anymore then it already is, and the pilots are getting paid less then the baggage handlers.... somebody forgot to plan this one out. this is a step backward for the industry. I definitely see the need for the Q it is a great airplane but it should be flown by mainline or for at least respectable rates.
