hi there fellows pilots,
just some question about using of this wonderful pmdg aircraft:
1) why is it marked as historical? Seems in an good shape and it's currently used wordwide.
2)why in the company's landing statistic section it isnt considerated?
3) Why, assuming that it is a turboprop, acars displays on t.o. and landing the n1 value instead of the RPM value?
Cheers

1. Air France or its regional partners don't use it. Delta's regional subsidiaries retired them.
2. No Idea. A lot of planes aint considered. Probably cos not many fly them.
3. Yes it is a turboprop. Turboprops are essentially jet engines which use the exhaust to turn the prop. If you check any turboprop cockpit, the main readings are N1 and N2. Those are of more importance to the pilots.
