Thanks so much for the interesting info, azj. I was also tickled that on another thread you found some of your old buddies. They must be very proud of you now.

May I ask just one more question? Is the RJ85 related in any way to the Bae146s? There is a lot of outward resemblance, but little on the inside. Of course, maybe that's because the ones I flew on were configured for 88 pax.

Didn't mean to take up your time, but it's really nice having you here!
