Yes, have to agree. Loads of room, and I actually liked the 2 seat layout on one side of the aisle.

A good few years back I flew tyrolean air, in a prop plane. One if the best flights ever

Unsure if they still exist? They were small and good, so I doubt it!

As posted before, they've been rebranded as Austrian Arrows.

The prop planes are the ones that Flybe use.

Still officially trading, but rebranded. Same mob I flew with recently on a Fokker. Oo er.
