Replacing an earlier scanned photo with a better version, plus Topaz DeNoise AI 02-Dec-23

 

Team Lufthansa operated by Augsburg Airways.

 

First flown with the Bombardier test registration C-GFBW, this aircraft was delivered to Augsburg Airways in Dec-00. It started operations on behalf of Team Lufthansa as D-ADHA at the start of Jan-01.

 

Team Lufthansa was renamed Lufthansa Regional in Oct-03.

On 21-Sep-07 the aircraft made an emergency landing at Munich, Germany with the nose gear retracted. It was repaired and returned to service in mid Nov-07.

 

After 17 years of Augsburg Airways operating for Lufthansa, their contract was terminated at the end of Sep-13 and the aircraft was returned to Augsburg Airways in early Oct-13 and stored at Maastricht, Netherlands.

 

As Augsburg had operated solely for Lufthansa they had no other contracted flying. The company closed down at the end of Oct-13 and the aircraft was returned to Bombardier.

 

In Dec-13 it was sold to DR PPJ Aircraft Leasing (Canada) as C-FGNJ and leased to North Cariboo Airlines in Jan-14. The aircraft was ferried to Greenwood, MS, USA in Sep-15 and permanently retired. It was noted at Greenwood in early Oct-15 without engines, doors or registration. It was broken up by the end of Oct-15.
