I agree, the PC 24 could only serve a small “market”, not knowing the financials, it was probably cheaper for RF to keep contracting Hawker jets etc, for longer runs in the bigger states.
My question is would PC-12’s not get a go in the SE because of contract stimulations or simply because company policies dictate you can’t fly single engine ops to Flinders, King or Tas in general?
