Dork Prop (328) seen in Atlanta today....

[General Lee]

Take a look at box office, just because I agree with The General often, he likes to slam us. Too bad dude, I will continue to support him because he does understand this industry a lot better than the likes of you and that Vietkong dork.

Rod,

Um, nevermind....


Bye Bye--General Lee

Dornier 328 Turboprop = Dork prop

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dornier_328

I don't see a reference in the wiki entry that indicates such a nickname.

I'm sure you also would not see "whistlin' ******************** box" for the F-27, "Lawn Dart" for the Metroliner or any of the other thousands of nicknames for airplanes. The people that write the wiki's are usually fans of the aircraft they are writing about. The nicknames usually evolve on the line and are almost never complimentary.

I have only heard "Lawn Dart" for 20 series Lear Jets....never for the Metro.
Metroliner = San Antonio Sewer Pipe or Garrets on Stick.
