First DH8 Passenger Experience
I just got off my first DH8 experience as a passenger, flying out of PGV on Piedmont. It was definitely LOUD since my seat was right by the prop. I was impressed with how roomy it was inside. I thought it was better than the ERJ 135, 145 or or any of the CRJ's I've flown on. As a passenger, I almost would rather fly on on the DH8 than any of the above. It was fun to fly on, and I can only imagine what it's like to fly it.
I'm also curious about Piedmont's crew make up. The captain on my flight looked to be in his 50's, which surprised me a little bit, with the FO looking fairly young. Is the crew makeup older at Piedmont, or was mine just a unique experience?
