Nothing wrong with prop planes. They are turboprops anyway, not piston engines. Solid commuter plane, also widely used by military/coast guard I believe. There was a well publicized crash a few years back of a Dash 8, cause was icing but I think it was ultimately pilot error, voice recording showed pilots were not really paying attention to the flight. Not really an issue this time of year anyway.
