Advantages and disadvantages compared with those of reciprocating engined aircraft; speed advantage of turbine craft will be sizable, whether pure jet or turboprop propelled; however, higher speed is not significant for short range operations if aircraft must climb to high altitudes to achieve that speed and if ramp, taxi, and runup times are high in proportion to flight time.
