I believe the contract was for MRO side of the business although im sure the airline side of the business is always looking at this side of things re the smaller jet.
A couple routes Flybe have could do with a CRJ 700/900 EMB170 etc with loads not quite EMB195 but too much for the Q400 like LGW-INV BHX-MXP LGW-JER etc what does everyone think? The Q400 just doesn't replace the EMB145 on some routes. With already close tie ups with both Bombardier and Embraer surley both are possible?
