The delay in the aircraft ian totally not to do with Stobart Air and I’m afraid on this one, knowing what’s happening then this is Flybe’s fault.

Any crewing issues are down to the fact they’ve have had to put an extra ATR in the base at very short notice with crew levels sufficient for 2 aircraft not 3. So not only are they are aircraft short they have a surplus of EJET crew and a shortage of ejets and an extra atr and having to bring in crew from elsewhere.

Flybe have not done a good job here at all and at least stobart should get credit for trying to keep the operation going

ACMI capacity in June in Europe is as rare as hens teeth.
