I agree a turboprop is eficient it's actually more modern than people think and it's even used by the Canadian Air Force as a trainer for those event she getting into the F-18 Hornet Jets. Using a turboprop for coin is a poor man's warthog.

Only plane that I've heard disrespected was the Mitsubishi MU-2 --- cause it was a pig to fly
