2 port,

To clarify, West Atlantic is the result of a merger between West Air (Sweden) and Atlantic Airlines Coventry. You are correct in that what was formerly Atlantic Airlines at Coventry only operated Electras and ATPs and a 737. I understand that the 737 is used for transporting Horses hence is not used for the general freight operation (though I am not certain about this).

The 146, ATR and CRJ are from the West Air fleet. West Air was also an ATP operator.

I do not know what the exact arrangement is between West Air and Atlantic; but I would assume that as the cadet scheme originates from the Atlantic side of the operation then Cadets are only likely to end up on the ATP or Electra.

Leedspotter,

I know one or two of the guys at Atlantic / West Air, and I know from past conversations they were saying that there is not currently any ex-Fug in the LHS on the Electra fleet, so I would be very interested to know where the four year to command figure came from.
