WPE became LNB with Lincoln Airlines from June 1992 and joined by LNC in November 1993. For the period June 1992 until Dec 1993 LNB performed very reliably 28 return flights a week between Port Lincoln and Adelaide (maintenance every Tuesday night at Tuna City Aviation). The LAME's were glad when the second EMB-110 arrived and they did not have to do night maintenance. Unfortunately LNC was sacrificed to keep LNB and another poorer EMB-110 specimen going after Lincoln Airlines was sold in 1997.
LNC remains as a non-flying wreck at Port Lincoln and should be confined to the deep as an artificial reef.
