    My 11 yo and I see this exact plane (N395DC) on our way to school every morning, as it lands in MSP.
    We finally figured out the mystery of the "weird plane" today, and are delighted to see your video about it!

      I remember last time I went to Amsterdam I flew in a Embrarer 175 on the way there and then a Bombardier turboprop (still the only time I've been on a turboprop) on the way back, two pretty unique planes as that route is usally just A320's galore or 737's

    The Frontier airlines flight that pushed back at 18:17 is where I’m taking a road trip to next week and then Owatonna, MN and the twin cities. It’s also rare for a shuttle bus to carry passengers and a trailer at the same time.

    Back in 2006, I flew from Denver to Madison, WI on Midwest Airlines. The airline's main hub was Milwaukee (MKE) and the connection between MKE and MSN was on the Fairchild Dornier 328JET. It's a really nice little jet.

    loved flying on the 328JET out of Milwaukee to Des Moines on Midwest Connect, a great little aircraft - not the longest range, but it was not designed for transcontinental flights. Those PW306's really howl as they spool up. Very cool unique plane. thank you for sharing this! (just looked, this leg is now flown with an ERJ-145 as of 3/2/23)

    I've flown the Dornier 328 on Ultimate Air Shuttle between BKL-LUK. They have great service too with snacks according to time of day (i.e. cheese & fruit tray) & free alcohol. When you fly to LUK, they even provide free limo service to downtown Cincinnati. I've also flown the prop version of the 328 with USAir Express in the 1990s many times between CMH & IAD & RIC.

I’ve never flown on a Dornier 328 Jet but have flown numerous times on the Dornier 328 Turboprop on Horizon Air out of Eugene, OR in the 90’s. It’s a bit strange I found this video this after watching a video of the Key Lime Air cargo / Cirrus SR22 mid-air collision over Centennial Airport back in March. I’m happy your flight had none of THAT kind of drama.👍🏼

    I did this trip myself on Denver Air Connection on June 24 and 25, 2021. On those flights they used an Embraer 145 and, interestingly enough, CVN (Clovis) was fully-staffed with three TSA officers and bag and body scanners. So, no "good ol' days" for me! But, Denver Air Connection was top-notch and the people of Clovis I encountered were likewise. I may repeat the trip soon!
    P.S. I stayed in the Super 8 as well! Wonderful staff!

    You should fly in out of Silver City, NM if you think Clovis is remote. The airport is smaller, run by two ladies who show up and open up shortly before the flights. Grant County Airport.. Good bird watching at the airport. One of the ladies told me they used to have a pet roadrunner. Only connection was to Phoenix on turboprops. Silver City seemed to be growing a bit so hopefully there is still air service.

    I noticed one of these jets while driving past Hawthorne Airport/ HHR this morning. I thought it was pretty unique looking, so I noted the tail number and looked it up. The plane I saw is used for commuter and charter service.
    That airport had an Embraer sliding off the end of the runway a few days before New Year's Day. It looks like the damage to the fence and ILS equipment has been repaired. The people on board were OK, but I prefer the kind of flight experience you share in your video.

    I remember reading about the D328 in Airliners (sadly no longer in circulation) and Airways magazines. If I remember rightly Ozark Airlines started up again using the D328. I live here in Fort Wayne Indiana which has become a regional jet airport except for Allegiant which now flies their A319's in here. I don't remember if anyone ever flew the D328 in to Fort Wayne. I can remember flying in and out of Fort Wayne on the DHC-7, Bae 146, ATP, Convair 580 and F-27 many years ago. I also flew on the DC-9, Boeing 737 and 727 too flying in and out of Fort Wayne.

    The Clovis airport kind of reminded me of flying out of Youngstown-Warren Regional back when it had regular service (Though YNG is a bit larger, and had a security checkpoint). In 2000, I took a Northwest Airlink Saab 340B from Youngstown to Detroit, en route to Baltimore. I kind of miss it, and I'm not sure if YNG will ever have scheduled service again after Allegiant left them high and dry

      Yeah, times have changed quite a bit, haven't they! I'm nearing Part 121 ATP minimums and getting ready to board my first regional after a lot of Part 135 stuff. Heard anything on Denver Air Connection as far as pilots being happy there? Their pay package now is THE best in regionals... FOs are starting at $80K and Captains are making >$150K. I can't see a whole lot of room to complain, but they're hard up for pilots too and maybe there's a big downside to flying there in spite of the pay.
