Turboprops

Here you can find an overview of the most common Turboprops. The Word “Turbo” does not stand for turbocharger. Instead it stands for turbine engine, which is driven by kerosene. Compared to reciprocating engines, the advantages of such engines, besides their high reliability, are the almost continuous power output in all altitudes as well as the running smoothness and the minimal vibrations. Turboprops are applicable particularly for airports with short runways because of their reversible pitch propeller (Reverse Thrust). All aircrafts can be flown by only one pilot. The denoted prices are approximate values depending on the actual $ rate (daily updated).

* The operating costs are only benchmarks which can considerably vary depending on fuel-, labor costs and also insurance benefit, annual utilization and currency fluctuation.
