Bad Airplane

I like planes. That's probably obvious. Don't ever remember seeing a plane I didn't like. Ever. Until today. This is the Dornier 328, perhaps the world ugliest jetliner. Really, what were they thinking - other than "how do I get jet engines unto a turboprop?", but come on, even with propellers someone must have noticed something wrong. What's with the wings? Makes it look more like a seagull than an airplane. Would you believe, this aircraft not only put Dornier out of business, but also put its purchaser and successor, Avcraft Aviation out of business also?! Now that's ugly! Kind of hard to return these things to the factory for servicing when there's no factory! Having said ALL that - it's still nice to get a shot of something different.
