http://zennie2005.blogspot.com/2011/01/sfo-to-fresno-to-las-vegas-on-united.html SFO To Fresno To Las Vegas On A United Airlines Propjet for CES 2011. What happened was that the flight from SFO (San Francisco International) to Las Vegas that left out of Gate 92 at the International Terminal was so tight no standbys got on it at all. So we were sent to another flight to Fresno, with a connector to Las Vegas.

What wasn't made clear was that it was a prop jet. That brings up all kinds of images of projets in the movies with failing engines and ratty interiors. So, this alternative wasn't the best choice, but it seemed to be the only one.

The first leg, SFO to Fresno went 40 minutes quick. What was memorable was that it felt like every vibration the plane might make came through the passenger seat. Seriously. But, with all of that, the ride was smooth, if loud, and the landing quick and neat. Impressive.

  • OMG at 1:16 that's Senator Dianne Feinstein 2 seats ahead of you.

  • @TheSocialRevolution LOL. Not quite, but close, huh?

  • does turning off electronics mean anything to you?? not one bit??

  • @TheDJCool34 Well, have you BOTHERED to look at the videos on YouTube or are you just being gauche for the hell of it?

  • how do you like the EMB-120 compared to the CRJ-200 that took you from Denver to Atlanta that plane is not so small anymore huh. Stop complainin bout the sizes if they werent safe they wouldnt fly them.

  • @MegaContain1 Still prefer a 737 or the old 727 jets.

  • @MegaContain1 Also, don't assume that a plane is "safe" because a carrier uses it. That's what they want you to think; the real issue is low cost. A budget for a CRJ-200 from Atlanta to Washington is $40,000 versus about double for a A320. It's not safety, it's cost.

see all

  • i have to fly to SFO on the same type of plane. only im leaving on a 757.

  • @TheDJCool34 that pertains to electronics that transmit/receive signals that would interfere with nav or com equipment i.e. cell phones. hence the "aircraft mode" on your phone. the new style cameras don't have the capability to harm an aircraft
