There are about 20 of them on the ramp about 500 yards from my office ... all ex Canadian Regional aircraft with no engines and being slowly stripped for parts by someone working out of a large hangar.

There was a small group that had hoped to put a program together to re-engine and upgrade the avionics on these airframes, then market them. That fizzled out about five to 10 years ago.

Rather a sad sight to see now.
