Jets to return to Guernsey
Flybe is planning to bring jets back to Guernsey.
Flybe Europe managing director Mike Rutter said the company was keen to start flying its Embraer 175's to the island.
Initially the aircraft will be used on the Gatwick route, if that was successful it would investiage using the aircraft on other routes like Southampton.
Jets have not been used since the BAe 146 was retired due to concerns over the strength of the runway.
Work to strengthen the runway is progressing well and expected to be complete by the end of March.
