Whilst this solves the short term issue with regards to the government patient transfer requirements, there are not many seats available for joe public.
Meanwhile Stobart's ATR72 EI-GPN sits on the IOM ready to go with a full compliment of crew. The crews are all sitting wondering what is going on. The ATR is a better aircraft for the route with more seats and the Ambilift is able to get the Wheelchair passengers on, not so sure about the lil Saab..
