Yeah, that's KLAF. You can see Lilly in the background of the first pic.

The volleyball team used to charter a 328Jet, but it would park at the terminal instead of the LafAv ramp.

I always wondered whether these jets are noisy inside. I had a professor in aerospace school that used to advise against hanging turbojet engines under the wings if it's a high wing passenger jet. Dash 8's and other regional props do this, and it pretty noisy in there.

I flew on the Avro RJ's operated by Mesaba and those things were probably the most comfortable and quiet RJ I've ever been on (considering I'm 6'5")

I flew on the 328's Skyway used to operate out of MKE twice, and each time it was a decent ride... Once was crazy cause of bad weather, but otherwise nice rides in all of em...

I think I saw you out here taking those pictures the other day. Were you with a friend? I was taxiing in in a 172R at the time. Nice pictures, I like the Dork Jet...different kind of airplane than you normally see.

Unfortunately, I was alone. All my friends were in class (all I have on Fridays is a 7:30 flight, so I did some spotting after that ).

I think that your 172R may be taxiing in front of the "Dork Jet" in the second shot.
