B717 Hmm!?

G'day from the enicalyth.

I saw that Quantas Airlink were about to phase out in BAe146 in favour of the B717. Not many of the latter have been sold and it does struggle a bit although it does have a bigger wing than the Diesel Nine and more poke in the engines.

Try http://www.boeing.com/assocproducts/aircompat/717.htm

I have found these Boeing pdfs to be pretty reasonable but they are nowhere near as rigorous as the Boeing Laptop Tool. (Probably no BLT for the 717).

I was in Kalgoorlie on election day... BAe146 on the flight in and a B737-400 on the way out... all from/to Perth. Big changes at Kally these days, eh? Had a glass of yellow liquid with bubbles in it in the York Hotel. No change there.
