  • Today we'll be flying onboard a very interesting aircraft, the Dornier 228NG. Aurigny originally bought 4 of these aircraft to replace their ageing fleet of Britten Norman Trislanders, to operate in and out of the tiny Alderney airport. Alderney has a runway of just 800 meters, so a special STOL (Short takeoff and landing) aircraft is needed to fly passengers in, and the Dornier 228 meets those requirements. The aircraft is officially based from Guernsey airport, due to its much larger maintenance facilities, but it operates from Alderney to both Guernsey and Southampton for passenger service.

      Indeed it is. I've been on both G-ETAC and G-OAUR to ACI many times. (Edit) I just realized this is a video game account.

    Nice. I have a place in Alderney, and knew the Trislanders well, but I find the 228s are so much more comfortable and fast.

    Being on the flight path to Southampton and not being into aircraft the time of the trislanders, these are the most interesting that fly in, in my opinion

    Nice work! For your next airport update, we’re hoping for DCA and would request a route to BTV on American Eagle E175. Also, Air Canada is back flying from YYZ and YUL on CR2s. BOS airport update would be great too, especially with American A319s for the shuttle routes. Keep up the great work!

      I've realised this with a lot of my older videos. I think it was an effect of reading from a script. I don't think I do it as much in my newer videos though, I'm curious for feed back if you think this has gotten better?
