Maastricht Airlines

According to this website, another new Dutch airline will be founded, Maastricht Airlines. Flights should start in January 2013, initially from Maastricht to Amsterdam, Berlin SXF, Munich and Paris CDG. From 2014, SEN and Copenhagen will be added. Flights operated by Fokker 50's.
When I first saw this I thought here we go again with another Europort Express paper airline, but this seems to have more substance. An internet search shows that Hamid Kerboua was one of the founders of Denim Air, owner of Flyport International (a modular passenger terminal firm) and K'Air. Maastricht to SEN would work well, I think, especially with F50 size equipment. Let's hope they plan their start of schedules rather better than OLT Express did!!
