As to your dismissive, condescending, smug post about my inability to find a comfortable spot on the ATR I say Virgin should be worried.
They are the people offering a commercial package against the incumbents and if Virgin look at the size of passengers embarking on the frames you will no doubt note that quite a few are a bit outside the ICAO 77KG 4 FOOT tall cookie cutter pop out that the ATR72 - 500 seems designed for.
Last Thursday I travelled the SYD - CBR route I caught the Dash 8 to SYD then caught the Coach back, whilst twice as long time wise it had more room and cost my employer 15% of a turboprop ticket.
Cant get comfortable in Business you silly Billy? two weeks ago I flew back from Indonesia in Business and the space, comfort level was incredible.
Now where's that high speed rail everyone keeps talking about?
