Has anything already been said about turboprop modeling? It was one very weak point in FSX. Only a few developers tried to tackle it: Milviz improved the free turbine PT-6 in their Pilatus PC-6, Turbo Otter and in the upcoming King Air. Majestic created the fantastic Dash-8. PMDG even made a geared TPE 331 for their JS-41. If I remember it right, they described the stock FSX turboprop model as "hopelessly broken".

Nothing has been reported from the ASOBO team regarding turboprops, but given that at least one of the default aircraft is a turboprop, one would hope that the TP engine has been thoroughly overhauled.
