SO THAT"s where the Dornier 328Jet went to!

:)




Actually, from that angle it does look Dornierish, with a bit of BAe146 thrown in for good measure ... there's just so many ways to come up with a high wing regional T-tail jet, eh?

it looks like they made a mix of the Avro and the Dornier with a little Russian accent: something BIG...in this case, the engines.  ;)
Raw power...the J-58.
