This is what Bill was saying to Wr
 Hi Bill
 WM> QuebecAir flew them in Canada.  I remember living in Montreal in
 WM> the early seventies, and watching the noisy little suckers.  We
 WM> always said that they were actually manufactured to produce
 WM> noise... the fact that they flew was simply a by-product.
 BW> I don't recall ever seeing one.  I think most of them were
 BW> produced after I stopped hanging around airports watching jets.
 BW> Also after most airports closed there observation decks.  And
 BW> perhaps none were operated in this part of the country.
Just jumping in here.  Our Air Force (RAAF) stopped using them around
1989 for a much quieter Falcon 900.  They were VERY noisy, unlike
their replacement.  With the 900, you can just hear then "whistling"
as they are taxiing (??) around.  They are a pleasure to marshal
around.
