Yes, makes sense. When I was talking Dash-8 I meant the 100-300, which yes would put the -400 another $20k up again, so $220,000 for a Q400 Captain is reasonable. The issue with QLink dash operation was always the rift between Easterns and Sunstate, and no more evident than at EBA time. If DiVosh was still with us he could attest to that as he was directly involved in the negotiations there. We had more than one conversation about how they were pushing '****e' uphill at negotiations, that's around when DHA was introduced as QLink was playing silly buggers by providing meals rather than letting pilots claim for them. Things like using the Q400 fleet locations to swing one pilot body against the other.
