Nice shot George, I used to work those gates back in the day! I remember sprinting to the "hole" as we called it, to receipt and debrief crew. Our break room was located at the other end of concourse near US Customs! |

Believe it or not, back in 1989 in the months leading up to the Piedmont/USAir merger, USAir was using a Piedmont gate on the B concourse for a DC-9 flight to BOS each day (and I think for an overnight parking space, too). This was back when USAir still had a pretty big presence in CLE, something like 45 flights a day or something. Why didn't I take any pictures??? duh :( |

I was going to say that I dont ever remember USAir using the B concourse, but I see the A gates in the photo. |

Man, I forgot how stubby those F28-1000's were. They were unique though. Tiny bellies (height-wise) and that dang APU exhaust near the aft belly. Nice shot of an airplane that is missed. I loved watching them land with those air brakes popping out under the tail. |
