I FLEW ON THE FLIGHT DECK! Behind the Scenes at a Regional Airline!
video description
Just one very very minor correction - at 00: 58, stored at Myrtle Beach, Florida is not a thing. It would have likely been stored at MYR which is Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Just throwing this out there, but if you ever get a chance to visit the Carolinas, it's a great part of the US to relax and unwind without the overly commercial feel of Florida. Most people like the Charleston area of SC better than Myrtle Beach, and I would agree, with that, but there might be more to do with the kids in Myrtle Beach. Charleston - and Savannah, Georgia for that matter - are known for their southern charm and history, both beautiful (and thoroughly walkable) small cities. There are also good plenty of good beaches nearby. many like to rent a house for a few days within steps of the sandy beaches.

Even if this is an older video, i had to throw in a comment anyway.
Back in 2017-18, while in 8th grade, i had the chance to spend my work-experience week with this company due having personal contacts within it.
This video gives me a huge trip back memory-lane, since i've been toured in the exact same private planes, walked the same hangars, and even got to work as an airplane-mechanic and fly jumpseat, on a flight from BLL to Manchester.
Magnificant airline i must say, and absolutely great stuff for a 14-year old av-geek to experience!

Wow! Ive never heard of or seen this aircraft before and now I want to fly on it! The airline I work for flies the Q400 so I am very familiar with a smaller company and aircraft as well as the honour of flying jumpseat! There really is nothing else like it (unless of course its business or first! ) Check us out Porterairlines and if youre ever in Toronto please come visit us at YTZ Toronto City Centre Airport!

Unlike you i did not like the 328. Althoug the cockpit looks snug and cosy, the way the systems worked was weird, steering was extremely heavy and with gear under the fuselage rather than under the wings the crosswind limit was rather low.
Must admit i only familiar with the prop version.
I was however supprised to see the 328 landing on LCY (i think it is 7. 5' which is pretty scary the first time)

I have never flown on the jet but the turboprop many times.
This aircraft is so underrated, so smooth and quiet compared to its competitors.
I would trade a dhc-8 and ATR any day for this aircraft.
Great video! Love to see more 328s

I saw one of those 328s in Delta Connection livery at Columbia Metropolitan in 2003 and was utterly baffled by it. I guess it operated on such limited routes that Delta didn't include it in the inflight magazine.

Only just found this little gem. I worked for Atlantic Coast Airlines as a pilot and flew this one too. It was a fun aircraft to fly and we gave it the pet name: TOGA To Ten as it was so overpowered!

Omg. that was so cool! Still not a huge fan of take-offs and landing at London City though. First time I went to the Isle of Man the quick ascent on a prop plane shared the hell out of me!

Thank you for a wonderful review! The Dornier Jet is certainly ideal for the flights you took, and as you say, the landing at LCY was the icing on the cake! Well done!

Funny. you don't seem to have an issue with the air ambulance black and yellow colors, yet you called the Spirit Airlines A320 from California to Las Vegas garish.

My uncle worked for Cessna and it was a day to remember in pilot and copilot seats taxiing a Citation. I got to power up a jet for the only time in my life.

Another great video Noel! So lucky to ride on the jump seat. Quiet jealous to be honest. Love the 328, looks a bit like the anorexic brother of the BAE-146

Love how the guy at 0: 06 walks right by two signs that say no luggage on the escalator, while pulling a suitcase towards the escalator.

How is that - take a 30-seat turbo prop commuter plane, and make a jet out of it! Too bad it became too small for many airlines.

i'm kind of surprised by that landing, because it just looked like a rough landing, but the camera shakes were very smooth lol

Awesome. Seemed noisy in the flight deck on taxi/take off. Or was that just the video? Couldn't hear the flight deck call outs.
