does flybe fly into iom with the 190 normally.just asking as i thought it was a rather short runway and was wondering how they might get it out
The 190 performs very well on/off short runways.
IOM Take off distance available 08 = 2446m (TORA=1631m)
SOU Take off distance available 20 = 1805m (TORA=1650m)
There are 2 E190's based in SOU doing multiple flights per day without any problems.
You can actually carry an extra 1.8 tons off IOM as apposed to SOU due to the increased TODA.
Hope this helps,
