F50 flies only domestic in East Malaysia (Borneo). Bases are Kuching in Sarawak or Kota Kinabalu in Sabah. You fly to all the small towns and have around 8 destinations.

Short sectors, beautiful scenery and lots of visual flying.

Kuching is a very tidy, landlocked midsize city, whereas Kota Kinabalu is a bit charmless, but right by the sea in beautiful surroundings. If you want quiet family life go to Kuching. If you are single and want more action go to Kota Kinabalu.

Just remembered seeing an article about the fleet replacement in Saturdays local paper. Bombardier has offered the Dash 8 or regional jet, or a combination of both, to replace the F50.
