Ah, we've still got one of those noisy birds flying out of here, twice a week.  Just to haul folks to Orlando and back.  I'm just glad it only flys during the daylight hours, so I don't loose any sleep (I live at the end of ROA 24).

Flew the military medical version many times and I hope to fly on them again, as they have now started a regular round of flights out of Fort Campbell.

Excellent presentation, Tom.

We've all probably been on one of these guys at one time or another -- only 831 airframes produced?  I'd have figured many more.  How many still in service, I wonder?  And with what carriers?

Impressive archive, Tom, and seeing some long-gone carriers' markings is a bonus.
