Cabin

Description

The Fairchild Metro is one of the most popular turboprop airliners in the world. The long fuselage can hold a total of 19 passengers. The cockpit is only separated from the passenger cabin by a narrow gangway, so that the passengers can look over their pilot's shoulder. The turboprop engines ensure economical flights – particularly for shorter distances. Thanks to these characteristics, the Fairchild Metro is a popular aircraft for group charters.
