Actually, this could well be true. these Fokkers are fun in a way but they are prehistoric pieces of engineering, and more often than not, they don't take off at all and flights are cancelled altogether, so probably lucky you didn't get stranded in AMS waiting for one of the F50s to work! the E190 will probably make things quite a bit better
