Its down to cost. Yes the 228 would get in and out of ACI no problem but in the UK it would be two crew operation against the Tri which is single crew. Also no Jet A1 on Alderney also the 228 would take longer to turnround who can remember the number of rotations that the props need after shut down to ensure even cooling.
