I flew a few times on a JetStream 32 (seats 19) and in the front row it feels like you're riding jumpseat.
For those who had flights with no F/A, it must have been on an aircraft with < 20 seats. Anything with 20-50 seats requires at least one F/A per FAR.
This was on a Great Lakes Aviation Beechcraft 1900 flying (Telluride) TEX-DEN.
The FO did the safety demo.
I was just on UA EWR-MTJ (Montrose/Telluride) A319 with 30 people.
