J41s a fine aircraft for its purpose but no way will Euromanx move to them. As they will be looking to wet lease the SAAB 340 is much cheaper and lots more readily available. Personally I cant see any sign of takers for the 2 old dashes anyway, unless they accept a bargain basement offer. Maybe they'll just slim it all down from 3 to 2 aircraft to reduce capacity on MAN,LPL and BHD and just lease another ATR from Arran for LCY. No way can the market support FlyBe and EuroManx planned capacity from March.
