You guys know they have ground A/C carts right?? That does a pretty good job of cooling the cabin down, even in summer.

Or does that get in the way of the constant need to slag off Rex?

I’d imagine they’ll install these in Charleville and Roma given the expected frequency every day.

Crikey the reaction on here to what is welcomed as positive news by the regional councils affected, you’d think the world had ended! If anything it shows the limitations (and real world effect) of QF moving up in size on regional routes. IE, people want frequency as well as a reasonable price. A Q400 is too big for these slimmer routes, perfect for a Saab though.
