YPMQ E jet in the wet

Found this on you tube while surfing around the web for entertainment, just goes to show that the far north does not have a monopoly on crap weather.


I hope the crew involved have seen it.

It's a very old video. Ejets haven't been to PMQ since last year and the last 170 left the fleet in Jan.

For what it's worth, it was the proving flight on 04 feb 2008.
From my log book, I was in the right seat with the CASA FOI in the jump seat.
From memory, the dash8 ahead did a missed app at the minima and we were lucky. I'm sure the locals who put on a party complete with bikini girls (in the torrential rain) thought that it was an example of "Jets" vs turboprops that made the difference.
