Title
Advantages of Turboprops
With the Indian Government's increasing emphasis on intra-State connectivity and its plans to expand the ambit of aviation to various tier-II cities, there is a lot of potential for aircraft of this capacity range.
The major advantage is the fuel efficacy, apart from that the Indian Government norms , no landing charges are to be paid for an aircraft with less than maximum certified capacity of 80 seats being operated by domestic scheduled operators.
Landing charges typically constitute 10 to 15 per cent of a single ticket fare range of $70-$75, risk with these aircraft is quite low because features such as fewer seats, their light weight (they weigh less than 40 tonnes each) and their fuel-efficiency would give airlines tax advantages, concessions in landing charges, as well as additional revenues and greater connectivity using the right-sized aircraft.
So definitely these would make more aircrafts flying in Indian skies in the very few years.
