Ahh the old mighty Beech 1900. I miss that girl, flew it for five years when I was at CommutAir. I was the captain on the very first CommutAir flight from CLE to FNT back in 2003

@swordsman1989 That's a really good story, it was a fun little plane to fly on

@wizzair1313 I was in Seat 3A I believe.

Very nice, crisp & clear sound. Was this back when CommutAir still operated the 1900?

[CMK102485]

Thank you buddy. Yeah this was December 19, 2006. I think there were maybe five people on the flight, they had to move me for weight and balance.

@bdsnook2 YES i was on this plane for a hour and a half flight to Bahamas and it was torture it was loud and it would get col and hot and the seats felt horrible and they need to put a 737 or at least a RJ.

seat?

That would describe the cockpit as well, unless it's summer... then it would be loud, sweltering, and uncomfortable.

Great video!

If I had to describe the B1900's cabin in 3 words, it'd be loud, cold and uncomfortable!

Sure thing. What type of video camera was this recorded with?

You know your in for a great time when your on an a/c where achieving proper balance come down to relocating pax! Small commercial planes are my favourite.
