Question BMi's new route to Stornoway.

The BBC local news here have just reported that 'British Midland' (their description) are launching a new route from Edinburgh to Stornoway in competition with Yogi Bear. It will be a full 7 day service too. Will this be operated by BMi Regional on the Barbie Jet? I believe they no longer have turbo prop equipment.

Will this generate any jobs for Pilots? I cannot see many current crew wanting to move to a Glasgow base and fly to the wilds of the Outer Hebrides, so does anyone know the plan?
