9L Q400 question

[dcfu69]

Do the (9L) Q400's have EGPWS? does it have the 500..100 50ft etc callouts?
Also, do they have acars printers on them? will the new ones have the printers? Are there going to be any enhancements or "fixes" from the older versions in regards to the APU, yaw damp, AP? sorry for all the questions I'm just curious cause I am probably going to be making the jump over to the Q by the end of the year. Not that any of that has a bearing on whether I go or not...just curious.

The main "fixes" that haven't been fixed is your Paycheck for flying it. Had a Jumpseater out of CRW to CLT and my FO felt bad for the dude when he explained what he got paid to fly it.

I think all airplanes flying 121 must have EGPWS, right? or just GPWS?

Actually, EGPWS is a requirement for ALL turbine powered aircraft. And, yes the pay on the Q is an horrible. Now, back to your regularly scheduled programming...

WTH is wrong with the yaw damper and autopilot?

 

[zasca]

Maybe he means the lack of auto-throttle problem...

Depends on your employer...The pay on the Q at Horizon isn't really all that horrible!
