Turbo props for Duo !!!
It has been rumoured for sometime that Duo are putting the clock back 20 years by operating Saab turbo prop aircraft from June onwards. Apparently the ex Cabin Crew Manager from BA who now seemingly runs the show at BHX has confirmed this to the Cabin Crew at a 'forum' recently.
Birmingham Executive Airaways circa 1983-1988 had one of these type operating which almost broke the back of the airline as the single saab was dogged with so many tech problems they had to send it back and replace it with 3 Gulfstream 1 turbo props.
Seems an odd choice based on the history of this a/c type.
