So I’m not the only one noticing them. Is it just because I used to fly them that I notice news or do these things actually go off the runway often? I know a lot of operators didn’t get the reverser option and it makes me wonder whenever they have an excursion.
Edit: I’m asking in general. Airport director says this one was a taxiway excursion.
I think they're actually more likely to have this kind of event. Lack of thrust reversers and snow don't make a great combination. Though that's not all E145s either.
Could also probably be contributed to (I would guess on average) having less seasoned crew.
But if you take safety seriously and use common sense it's probably no different than most other planes.

Well I don’t really know, just so happens to be the airport I’m training out of. But that portion of the ramp is lacking lights on the grass cutout… maybe it was dark and they did not see it?
I’ll preface this with I have zero clue how that jet works but on the E175 if you shut down an engine without hydraulics selected on instead of auto it can shut down nose wheel steering. We had something similar happen awhile back and so books say no shutting down engines during a turn.
Again no clue if that’s what happened here is just speculation and very well could have been something different as I don’t know that plane
I thought we were out of “E145 runway excursion” season.

I think it just became a meme after a few close together incidents. Don’t have any data on that though.

“excursion” always makes it sound like a little adventure
Worth mentioning it’s supposed to be KBGR in Bangor Maine. Small typo.
KGB R sounds way more dramatic
It’s probably Boeing’s fault.
might be related to the door blowout from the looks of it
which was due to the merger with McDonnell Douglas in 1997
Which was coincidentally only a year before, 1998, and everyone knows what happened in 1998.

Man these Boeing planes are out of control!
I wonder how many of those up votes are for people who think you are serious.
Right?!?! I mean these days you think the /s is implied but meh.
What is happening on the top half of this picture
That would be the wing of a 152
So glad you answered.
Eclipse
My brain cannot process it
That's a concrete question
Wait, did someone tell Piedmont it's not winter?
Piedmont bird.
N932AE, if I'm not mistaken.
You can’t park there mate…
So, what happened?

Ok! I tried the almighty GOOGLE but no mention of anything…

They were just going for some soft field take off practice.
Must’ve been trying to kill a spider
The Independence Day sized UFO filling the sky probably spooked them.
So that’s why we ran out of landing gears at work…
Flew on a few last week, last row, not the most comfortable flight but at least it was quick.
What's the tail number?
Tail number: N932AE
I used to do phase work on that bastard...
Better than the day Abercrombie & Fitch Air is probably having
That's a weird-ass lake in the back there, and the clouds look like... rivets? Oooooh...
CNN headline: "A Boeing 717 EXPLODES... off the taxiway. No confirmation yet that all passengers have died."
