I was on this CRJ700 back in 2006 flying EUG to SFO. It was one of Skywest's first -700s, according to the captain (delivered 2001 or 2002). Plus it was in United's grey colors which I thought was rare on newer UEX RJs like the -700.

I was sitting towards the back, so that may have had something to do with it. On takeoff takeoff and climbout, where I was sitting, the engines made a very loud, high-pitched scream. This may have had something to do with my seat near the back.
