While top speed only increases about 25%, range (over 2500 km on standard fuel) and payload (2000 kg or up to 12 passengers) significantly increase.

Ah, very good!

That's quite an impressive range.

A wide variety of Caribbean destinations are practical from Rosalie, Dominica, without needing to refuel. Not just the nearby airports on the islands of Guadaloupe and St. Lucia, but you could actually fly direct to Nassau. Granted, it would probably be a terribly slow way to travel and a short hop from Dominica to the next airfield where you can switch to a jet is probably faster and more comfortable, but it's nice to have the option.

Hell, you can even reach Nassau and other Caribbean destinations (not as far as the Lesser Antilles, though) from Galveston, if required.
