We used to operate the BAE146 small commercial aviation jets into San Francisco International Airport. We used to refer to them as Hangar Hounds - we joked that they were so often need of repair that they could land and find their way into the maintenance hangars by themselves. Then they just operated from maintenance base to maintenance base, we wouldn't fly them into an airport which didn't have mechanics trained to fix them. One sad afternoon one was lost over central California, brought down by a disgruntled employee who bypassed security with a gun and shot the pilots, and with a friend of mine on board to boot. :-(((
Ah, the glamorous world of Civil Aviation. Not.
