I've done this fight several times. I usually come on the last flight coming in to DSM at night. Atlanta to DSM via MKE. Those are actually nice little jets (Fairchild/Dornier) bummed that they no longer are produced. I hope Midwest survives all of the airline beatings and cutbacks going on, they are a class act. Thanks for sharing the vid.
No longer produced is not a product of performance. The company has gone bankrupt multiple times...

No longer produced because of the low cruise speed(400 knts). Bombardiers Q 400(turbo prop) does the same speed but uses 40 percent less fuel

@MrSistermaryelephant It's too bad, because this is one of the most beautiful aircraft ever designed. I also enjoyed the two flights I had in it.
