It was an AirWisconsin CRJ for US-Airways Express. Looks like a CRJ-200 on the TV.

Whoops! Flightaware says AWI578 landed at 4:40. Guess that site is accurate +/- 30 minutes

FlightStats.com is usually more accurate as far as times are concerned. Pretty cool little website...not as easy as FlightAware...but it serves it's purpose if you mess around with it for a little while. Kinda like a good woman.

It was ZW3758.
