Haha

I'd like to add a couple.

The C-207 is also referred to as the "sled" in the great white north.   Mainly becuase it's pretty well replaced the dogsled in mission.  ;)   It also offers similiar acruements for passengers and crew (lots of nice cold air and no heat).

The CRJ-200 is the Barbie Dream Jet among others names...
