This morning, I noticed on
FlightAware.com that a Key Lime Air Dornier 328JET was en route to Provo. So I made my way to the airport and my favorite dike road spotting location in order to catch it. In the end, I got one of the best angles I could ask for in photographing one of these rare jets
since I last saw one about a year ago! In addition to the 328JET, I got a great shot of a Learjet 60 that arrived soon after. Here's the link:
Provo (PVU) 31

| Key Lime Air (d/b/a Denver Air Connection) Fairchild-Dornier 328-300 328JET (N259DS) on short final for 13 as LYM563 from Denver-Centennial. Later scheduled to continue on to Central Nebraska Regional in Grand Island, Nebraska. |

| This 328JET was first delivered in 2002 to the now-defunct Atlantic Coast Airlines as N500FJ doing business as Delta Connection. It was then briefly transferred to the now-defunct Independence Air in 2004 when Atlantic Coast Airlines re-branded. The airframe was then re-registered in 2005 as D-BEOL and flew privately in Germany. In 2006, it was re-registered as N328PA and operated for Private Air Charters. In 2010, it was re-registered in Mexico as XC-LLS and flew for Procuraduría General de la República. In 2010, this 328JET was re-registered as N901SJ and flew for Comtran International. Key Lime Air acquired the airframe in 2015 and re-registered it to the current N-number. |

| I gotta say, I love this angle and I really love this green livery! Not only that, but I finally got a good shot of a 328JET close-up while airborne! And this isn't a loud jet either; I was quite surprised as to how quiet this jet was! |
