Trump says we’re now going to be getting diesel from Russia
Trump: have just concluded a highly successful discussion with President Vladimir Putin, of Russia, wherein it was agreed that Russia will immediately supply over 300,000 Tons of Diesel Fuel to the American and Global Marketplace, another 500,000 Tons during the month of November, and 1,000,000 Tons immediately thereafter. Additionally, based on the condition of their Diesel Refineries, Russia will then deliver, within a short period of time, 3,000,000 Tons of Diesel Fuel. Between our TOTAL CONTROL of the Strait of Hormuz, and this great announcement on Russian Energy, Diesel Prices for Americans and, indeed, the World, will be COMING DOWN, IN RECORD NUMBERS, AND FAST! Lower prices for Americans, especially our Great Farmers, Ranchers, and Truckers, is my Greatest Priority.
This is a very big and important announcement.
Additionally, it must be understood, that Iran will not have a Nuclear Weapon! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J.
TRUMP

The 328 is definitely the best 90s regional aircraft never to have succeeded. Warming over a 90s turboprop design has some merit but maybe it's better to choose the ATR, Dash-8 or even Saab 2000 where there's a decent support industry already.

One thing I'm actually jealous of the Swedes is they got to deal with B-17's. Just learned that many flight missions ended up in the neutral country for various reasons and in 1944 nine interned Flying Fortresses were even formally transferred for courier flights between Sweden and Scotland. #B-17 🇸🇪
