I think you are correct. It is also painfully slow if I remember correctly.

My hangar neighbors had a -146 as a personal aircraft for their family to run down from Fort Worth to Austin for UT games. The interior looked very comfortable. They replaced it two or three years ago with a 737. They had a BAC-111 before the -146.
I think they put less than 150 hours/year on the 737.

All of the old arrivals either have been, or shortly will be, retired. Just flew with a guy who flew the AVRO at Mesaba. The AVRO was the much improved version of the 146, and he quite liked it. Best, Rich

As Craig stated, PSA flew these up and down the California coast when I was starting out with frequent business travel, early 80s as I recall. As a passenger, I loved them, and I never experienced a bad landing in one--presumably due to the trailing link gear. I was sorry to see them go. Of course, I wouldn't have been aware of reliability or climb issues.

There was a company awhile back in the UK converting Avro RJ's into an RV is sorts with palatial interiors and a very large cargo door on the left rear. The door opened downward transforming into a platform for a Sheik of one flavor of another to sit on while his hawks were released for hunting....... You can't make this stuff up.

London City was a favourite. Until this happened. Trailing link gear or not, this was a tad much for that airframe. [youtube]https://youtu.be/Yj3xCh24MBA[/youtube]
