But it uses smaller turboprops, not the jets and large turboprops that Reeve flew.

Golden Gate had Convair 580s, de Havilland Canada Dash 7s and smaller turboprops.

The design and planning process, including safety tests, can last up to four years for small turboprops or longer for larger planes.

Many high-performance light aircraft, helicopters and some smaller turboprops use bladder tanks.

The design and planning process, including safety tests, can last up to four years for small turboprops, and up to 12 years for aeroplanes with the capacity of the A380.

And because the airport fees are set according to the weight of the plane, the private planes, like the small turboprops, are paying much less than big jets would be charged.
