You're right - I should have said just F28 and not put the 1000 on there. Good call! I think the -4000 was only marginally longer and looked almost identical. I can think of seven U.S. F28 operators for sure.

Altair, Mid-Pacific, US Air, Pilgrim Airlines, Piedmont, Horizon and Empire

There was one more that operated between SLC and LAS amongst other routes back in the 90s. I can picture the plane, silver/grey fuselage with dark blue logo but can't quite think of the airline name. I know I've got a postcard of it but my postcards are in storage. Any help?
