I think they (logonair) should just stick with the embraer since the demand for seats will shrink.
The problem is that the smaller the jet the higher the seat cost is to put them in the air. Whilst Loganair's PSO routes should be profitable the same can't be said for the routes where they are completely exposed to the vagaries of what the customer is prepared to pay.
Pocket-sized jets are not money-making machines.
