9L Q400 question

Thanks pilotpapa.

Thurman, try doing a Sun Valley-LAX in the Q with a full boat. Now that is some creative load workup. I do miss the SAAB and that awesome yaw damp

They like their bags, huh??? At Colgan, on the shorter trips, we would have problems with landing weight since it was so much less than Takeoff weigtht.

Saab-1 sweet bird to fly

When you leave the Saab, you'll miss "FLYING" the Saab...the Saab AP was great, rock solid, auto trim on the rudder. You could be inverted in a category 5 hurricane upside down, throw on the AP, the ol' girl would right herself and keep on truckin'. The Q, if you hit a light speed bumb, "George" will thumb his nose and refuse to fly.

I have to admit, I miss the Saab too. Always was a pilot's plane and a delight to fly, even the A's. I nominate the 340 to be inducted into the FI Hall of Fame...lol!
