Right before they were retired I took one from IAH to Ellington and back just to have one more trip on the old pig. The gate agent at Ellington was confused when I got off the plane and got right back on just 20 minutes later...love that double-wide terminal at EFD.

Thanks, I thought so. I took one once to Buffalo to have some wings at the airport bar and come right back home just to say I've flown on one and to brag I flew to Buffalo for wings! After that, I took one from Houston to Shreveport and back. I always thought the cargo bin between the cabin and cockpit to be a bit odd though.

Last I checked, Cape still operates two ATR-42-320s.

Nice shot, glad to see these birds soldiering on! (On a side note...didn't Cape Air operate some of these ATR's out of Guam for a while after that?)
