Photo Comment

One of nineteen Saab - Fairchild 340s operated by Comair commuter airlines. The type was returned to lessors or sold in the mid 90s as deliveries of Bombardier CRJs accelerated. First registered N360CA, this aircraft was returned in September 1994. Later flying with Chautauqua Airlines and Shuttle America (N360CZ there), it was bought by Pacific Coastal in March 2006. As can been seen here, it was later used for parts on the rest of their fleet. The registration was cancelled in April 2018 so it could be re-used on a newer aircraft (Saab 240B+ cn 340B-414).
