A highly efficient turboprop makes great sense for trips less than 700 NM. As petroleum becomes ever more political this type of efficient, reliable transport is hard to ignore.

As a long experienced DHC-7 pilot, instructor and examiner, I am pleased to see this fine aircraft still in service. After 50+ years of flying it is still my favorite!

Awesome video of the Dash 7! The last time I saw a Dash 7 was in the mid 80’s while flying VFR up the Hudson River in NY Airspace in my straight tail '59 Cessna 150 while on Flight Following and a Henson Piedmont Dash 7 was sequenced ahead of me going into LGA. :small_airplane:

Enjoyed that video. Nice to see a specialty performance aircraft still flying, making a living. These kind of airplanes are slowly disappearing, with no replacements being built. In addition to the DHC-7, the BAE -146, 737-200 combi, yes and even the 757-200.
