I’ve flown out of there a hundred times and have never noticed that truck. Where’s your Q400-8?

Neat. I also like those cattle ramps they use nowadays.

They are starting on a terminal expansion so my guess is no more cattle ramps in future years. We currently only have two extendable gates and 20 or so flights a day.

When I lived in upstate NY the terminal only had one jetway (though there was a provision for a second one). Didn’t really matter though, while they used to have DC-9s and F100s coming in, by the time I left it was mostly Dash 8s and the occasional CRJ, and the CRJs were the only plane that could use the jetway, and even then it was pretty superfluous, you had to climb more stairs to get to the jetway than you would have to have to just use the door stairs on the plane, and it didn’t seal tight against the plane so it didn’t protect against the cold. Really only useful if it was raining.

Says a lot about the average passenger, eh?! /s

Honestly, if the weather is decent, this probably beats “falling down a jetway” into an RJ or Dash 8.

Al legiant and Delta are the only ones flying anything of any size, 737 and A320's. Everything else is CRJ, Embarier 175's, and Dash-8's. It’s pretty fun in the summer to see 5 jets on the concrete at one time.

About 120° off the left side of the photo. To take the photo, I walked to the very edge of the paint near the cart to gate check larger carry ons. I though I must’ve looked very suspicious taking a photo there,  but nobody seemed to mind.
