I remember when United Express flew these for commuter service between FWA and ORD... It was a great plane to fly on.. Comfortable, smooth ride...
I flew on one back in 90s from Perth to Adelaide, lucky to have a back row seat and if the same config as those in the US they were 2+2 instead of 3+3 in the rest of the plane. Those rear row seats were almost armchairs. 146 didn't have the range for non-stop so we refuelled in Kalgoorlie and the refuelling truck was out of action so they rigged up a vehicle fuel hose - imagine how long that took!
Yep, United Express also flew them from TOl to ORD...early 90's worst flight of my life, landing virtually 0/0 with power settings all over the place and engines shaking on the wings. Never saw the ground until we carrier-landed on it.
Steven, sounds as if more pilot than plane perhaps.
Delta (Connection) flew these too. It was pretty cool to actually fly in one, ironically just before they dropped them. *POOF* they were gone.
Smooth flight, not so noisy, funny to see them coming in for landing with that split tail speed break. The first time I saw it, I was kinda freaked out. Interesting...
