I for one completely understand it as mentioned above, they're also transporting IOM patients to hospital appointents in Liverpool.
But again - taking the emotional side apart - at what cost? Economically does it makes sense or do we just need a patient transfer airline servicing small aircraft hopping between the UK's Islands? Running around in expensive to operate ERJ's isn't going to keep the stability going forward and nor is buying 25 year old ATR's.
