The 72 will be sooner than this depending on levels of freight business and also how the 4 incoming ATRs are received given it’s a new operating platform for the airline. Will be interesting to see how this will work out and when these ATRs are in service where the jets will fit into the picture given the props lower overhead costs
Is the plan to recieve the first ATR in November and add 3 more by Q1 2020 and are the aircraft being added still expected to be a ex Canaryfly AT7 and 3 ex Hop AT4’s
