And Alaska Airlines still spins it as an incident (https://blog.alaskaair.com/alaska-airlines/operations/penair-flight-3296/)
"Nearly one month ago, PenAir Flight 3296 was involved in an incident when the aircraft overran the runway at Dutch Harbor, Alaska, which resulted in a loss of life and injuries to others onboard. Our thoughts remain with the those affected by this incident."

You're welcome, everyone! But since I'm basically lazy, I hope y'all fly safe so I don't have to post many more of these reports.

I quit flying on Ravn. I probably averaged 40 flights a year with them for several years.
I figured after all those flights incident free my time was up.
No worse then AIA was with the twatters though.
The main thing that will kill you on one is reversed elevator cables. Triple check the movement against flying examples

Me thinks, they've been allowed to get too big. RAVN, Penair, Haglund, Frontier? Too big for their britches and FAA oversight. They should be shut down with an accident record as they have...16 accidents in the last 10-15years? Some with fatalities? Come on!!! But...they're too big and they service all the villages.It would just be crazy if there was no operator to haul the food, the peeps, etc. They've gotten too big...Years ago, before Neil Burke carved up the mail, to anyone that had a certificate, there was only one operator out of Bethel...That was SEAIR...we had all the work...and I don't remember an accident record such as this. We had 13 twin otters, a sky van and some turbo beavers and other stuff.. we got the job done and with no bent metal or....[/QUOT
SEAIR......Al Gay........”The Pilots Pal”...

Looks like it’s gonna be hard to get to or from DUT for a while.

RAVN has already announced they are resuming service with their Dash 8...far fewer seats than the Saab 2000 though
It's not!I find it very hard to believe that is for real.
yeah, but that means flying with RAVN.....

I bet his face did as well when He was getting ready to release is harness.-12 ailerons are different maybe giving that illusion? The wings do look funny from that angle in the picture. Then again, any airplane trapped in wires and hanging upside down looks a little strange!
