I think they were implying the E-jet.

brasilia makes an E jet? I was thinking the old turbo prop. At least you'd have to know how to fly again

I’ve never been too high or too fast to make the runway in a turboprop.

As easy as it was to get them down, it was hard to get them up. I definitely enjoyed TPs, have 5k in them, but it wasn't as good as Cessna's light twins. Did a 34 minute flight from Wichita to Olathe. With 8 minutes at FL370. Shortest landing 1200'. Always above the weather.

Never flew a jet til I got here so I dunno what I’m missing.
