Fleet

Five aircraft. No spare capacity to hide behind.

Northwind is small enough to feel every check, every delay, and every tail left away from base. Each type earns its keep differently, and the day changes when one goes missing.

Mainline passenger lift

McDonnell Douglas MD-80

Count 2Regs N800NW, N80NW

The heavier passenger lift when the runway is forgiving, the station is strong, and the demand is worth the metal.

Used where the board wants seats, range, and station strength rather than short-field finesse.

Regional passenger line aircraft

BAe 146-100

Count 1Regs N114NW

The scheduled domestic workhorse for thinner sectors and airports that ask more of the crew and the day.

This is where the network stops looking easy and starts looking like Northwind.

Freighter and logistics aircraft

BAe 146-200QT

Count 2Regs N146NW, N246NW

The freight spine: fish boxes, contractor loads, mail, spares, island supply, and the jobs no passenger schedule can cover.

If Northwind has a signature sound, it is a BAe freighter loading before daylight.
