BTW, why do they call them jetways?</font>
Because they came with the jets, and as far as I can recall have only ever been used with jets. I am aware FMC Corp have done something for commuter prop aircraft, but I've never seen these. Their product lines are called Jet-this and Jet-that; I don't know which came first.
