    This was Piedmont's first F28 delivered from Fokker. PI took on much of the former Garuda F28 in 1984/1985.

    I was in Roanoke (ROA) when this aircraft was flown on proving routes and on a familiarization tour. What an exciting day that was to see the first F28 in the fleet land!

    Thanks for this photo!
