And they don't have much elbow room, since they have 6 across seating
instead of the more common 5 across seating.

Oh Bugger, I last flew a 146 3-3 configeration CDG-FLR 1Hr55m and walked
out a cripple... mind a dash 8 may have been less cramped but I sat near an
engine and my ears rang for 3 days.

The trick on a prop plane is to sit near the back, away from the
propellers. It makes a big difference, and they are actually reasonably
quiet back there. It is often easy to get seats in the back since people
typically ask to sit toward the front for a quick getaway. In a small
plane, they don't take too long to unload, so it isn't a big hassle.
