Yes it's an interesting one. In all honesty i don't think the registration of particular aircraft and the implications it might have are a high priority to the people in the scheduling department, all they know is that a Dash and Bras might be required to the same / nearby site and schedule them accordingly. Agree that it can be a nuisanace for both pilots and atc alike but i doubt there's all that much that could be done to change things .....all the destinations are pretty much north and east and i dont think they'll keep the dash grounded when that particular bras is up and vice-versa. Would be nice though if they were rostered as far apart as possible but scheduling have probably got enough headaches at the moment. Actually, heard XFU be addressed as Yankee Foxtrot Uniform the other day, is that ATC's subtle way of venting their frustration?
