alleganey airlines, i have been a passenger f ther flight from charleston wv to washington DC, it was a single engine propeler driven aircraft, this is my first and last time i would ride a prop plane, its cruising altitute is less than 10,000 feet, and its all noise in the cabin. the take off of such small aircraft is very diffeent from jet powered where in the prop rpm is full, then they release the brakes on take off run.
