But this one was smaller yet, only 19 seats. The article says it's a Jetstream and the capacity makes it a -31 or 32. This a Jetstream 32 in Ansett New Zealand colors, although there is one other NZ operator, Origin Pacific)
This is veiw of the cockpit from the passenger area in a Polish (LOT) version. As you can see, no door, just a curtain.
Photo is date December of 2007.
The 19-seater Jetstream planes are used on short-haul regional flights by national carrier Air New Zealand and have only curtains separating the cockpit from the passenger area.
That’s quite an airplane compared to the AA hopper I flew from Chicago to (some little town I don’t recall the name of) Wisconsin. There was NO separation between the flight station and the rest of the plane. It was all just one barrel with seats inside and wings outside. The thing shook and rattled like dice on a crap table and there was no way you could hear anything but the airplane. It was quite a ride!
