Anyone any idea?
 
16 years ago, I flew from San Francisco to San Jose or maybe Sacramento. I was too young and don't remember now. I have no idea of what was the type of the aircraft but I want to find out. Any idea anyone? It was a turboprop, 2 rows of seats on the right and 1 row on the left side. I think it was a low wing aircraft. had a flight attendant. I think that was a Brasilia size but not Brasilia as it had a door on the back left side, not on the front. and rear baggage area was accessible from cabin because I could see all bags when I got in. SAAB's got a door in the front. What has a door on the back?

Could be an Emb.110 with usually 18 seats the P1 version had a large cargo door and the P2 had forward and rear steps. Thats my guesss.

Jetstream 31. United Express (Air West) probably.

Thanks
 
Thanks for both of you. The flight on this aircraft made me think I wanna be a pilot. Not a big jet. May be because I could see working pilots from the cabin. Anyway I had a look at pictures of both aircrafts and I think it was a Jetstream 31. Cabin looks like it and the position of the door is about right and if that is the aircraft flying West America, that may be it.
