anyone heard of another regional airline coming in with a 44seater turboprop????
Another airline?
The non jet routes are "protected" by a legally dubious state government tendering system.
Skywest operate 46 seat F50's and Skippers operate 50 seat D8-300's already so no big change.
The money is in FIFO not RPT. That way the company get's paid per flight not per seat sold.
