Everyone can see that the sustaining fleet is not coming back - why string it along? I know they said it’s coming back - but they also said no redundancies in the group.

After it is moved out of Brisbane it’s going to be probably 2021 before they can justify converting those crew to the Q400. The sustaining fleet is the poor younger brother of the A380.
indeed. The lack of updates has been very poor form.

they have changed their tone now though. It’s no longer “we have no plans to remove the Classic”, but now the company line is “we obviously can’t comment on any of the rumours etc going around”

Useful work on a 74 seater, but not on a 50 seater.... hmmm makes a lot of sense...
