0 a turbine used as an aircraft engine that provides most force for movement by turning a propeller, or an aircraft driven by this type of engine --
The turboprop is an excellent shorthaul airplane and a definite crowd pleaser.
In turboprops or designs with centrifugal compressors, it may be placed ahead of the compressor.
On the life of assets, is there not a strong case for differentiating between turboprop and jet aircraft, as the former tend to have a much longer life?
They no longer operate turboprops.
By the development of the gas turbine and then by the development of the turboprop, this country was ahead of the world, and it is still ahead of the world.
It is a four-engined turboprop plane and a high-wing rather than a low-wing plane.
The fuel price escalation has made the advanced turboprop, as against the medium size jet, a possible market winner.
I can see no logical reason why one should distinguish between turboprop aircraft and straight jets provided the value of the contract is similar.
