There seems to be a trend of Guppy bashing amongst people that have exactly 0 time flying the Guppy. No it’s not a sexy airplane, yes it can get backed into performance corners more often than one would like, no there isn’t a lot of room for your stuff, yes you have to actually move switches, you have to think and be a pilot a little bit, and yes you have to contend with the damn trim wheel. With all that said it’s not nearly as bad as everyone makes it out to be, it does the best flying if you’re looking for variety, and you have the most options of where to be based. When you’ve got a few thousand hours on it and want to ***** have at it. You’ve earned it then.
