Fly an Airbus the ATR way...(!)
Strangely enough, i think i know where Gica comes from.
TAROM like a few airlines with mixed fleet we "KNOW", have ATR's, Boeing's and Airbus and with that, the logical step up (this may seem weird) is to shove the ATR guys to Airbus because Boeing's the largest fleet for the airline(!)..
So boeing guys remain stable, whilst ATR lads gets bumped up to Airbus. And eventually, suffer because they cant more up to the core fleet.
REminds you of any other airline we know?...!(!)...a cargo airline perhaps?
