I have about 2000+ hrs flying the 404 Titian as a freighter…..a great tough airplane, but the engines can be temperamental and require care and planning to ensure you don’t shock cool them. Treat them right, they can go over factory TBO in 135 with FAA approval….but treat them wrong and they have a shockingly short life, often 600-900 hours…..

Thank u for the video, what i can observe when you are landing - you are on final - the way you respond to movement of the 404 is correct - u don't randomly move the yoke, but feel the need of input. I have seen so many - even airline pilots randomly moving the yoke left and right up and down trying to control the aircraft when the plane was on a stabilized approach. Think this comes from education. Want to have a beer with u one day and happy new year....

The one time I did such a route we went through Stornoway, Vagar and up to Egilstadir (single engine birdwhacker, so no attempt to go straight to Reykjavik). We brought the oxygen, extra tanks, rafts and life vests from the start though, so I guess the services in Scotland weren't that important.
