[@derekwall200]

that's why i love turboprops. the sound the props make is somehow comforting to me. i have no clue why

[@danielzelpher7335]

I know exactly how you feel.

[@Skyisnotalimit]

These ones go down the runway like a drag car. It’s got very powerful engines. Same as Hercules.

[@Entity_BlackRed777]

Nice AE 2100 engines, same engines as the C-130J Super Hercules!!

[@derekwall200]

cool dowdy propeller blades

[@princenoah21]

What's the point of a turboprop? Why not just use a turbofan or a piston powered propeller?

[@Nb005]

For performance and fuel economy

[@princenoah21]

@@Nb005 I would have thought that the turbo fan would have been better in both.

[@Nb005]

@@princenoah21 Well yes in terms of how fast it goes.

[@plutoidrepublic2765]

@@princenoah21 turboprops are slower in actual speed but not by much. a turboprop is a jet that powers those composite scimitar propellers.. plus turboprops use alot less fuel
