Quote Exup: "Route structure, lease costs ,spares, maintenace & airframe/engine cycles e.t.c all have an effect so a 200 on some routes i.e shorter legs may be just as viable than a 400 when all cost are taken into account."
Exup, tell me how can +/- 30 year old frames be profitable in maintenance. Are they going to bring them back to the Ghanaian flag and AOC... to cut a few corners?
Route structure: tel me, how can (as for ex.yesterday) taking of at MSE and landing 60 miles further at OST with a B-742 be profitable? A few trucks with polish driver seems more appropriate. How can flying long haul empty be profitable. Or are airports such as MSE/OST in such big needs they pay for a visit nowadays? Tell us.
