Bar Harbor Airlines Aeritalia ATR-42-320
N14804 (c/n 069)
By 1987 Bar Harbor Airlines had
entered into a code-share agreement with Continental Airlines
and
consequently the fleet of ATR-42s they had ordered were delivered in
full Continental Express
livery.
Prior to that the airline had had a similar arrangement with Eastern
and flew as Eastern
Express.
N14804 was seen at Philadelphia International Airport in 1992
(above) by Frank C.
Duarte
Jr. In 1987 Bar Harbor merged with
Provincetown-Boston Airline which, by then, was
itself under
the control of PEOPLExpress. When, in 1988, Texas Air Group
merged with
PEOPLExpress, Bar Harbor continued operating as subsidiary under
the Continental Express
banner and in
1989 moved its corporate offices to Houston. In the
early new millennium Cont-
inental Express
changed its name to ExpressJet at which tine the Bar Harbor Airlines
entity disappeared.
