Q400's

IOMspotter

Five have gone already without even really noticing them. The sixth
remains at BHX and has been used quite a bit this week along with
the spare 195 plus plenty of positioning flights earlier in the week.

Once the South African ones have gone by October it should be

51 x Q400's
14 x 195's
4 x 175's - which I believe matches the accounts

I only checked one week in November but 60 or 61 was the maximum
number of aircraft required so I would imagine IOM will remain as a Q400
base in the short-term.

Still a bit of slack even if a couple more Q400's leave the fleet.
