Not sure that the Dornier would be a suitable fit for IOM-LCY. Most of the weekday flights have pax numbers above the seat capacity of the dornier. Also without the Flybe LGW rotations there is going to be a lot of people wanting of the island first thing and inbound in the evening from the London area. I would imagine the E170 would be perfect come April next year, capacity wise. Some days when there are two EZY LGW's the first departure to London isn't until something like 1100. Bearing in mind some days its just the one rotation in the afternoon and none on saturdays. I don't believe the Sun Air Dornier would be able to cope with the demand but who knows what BA will do! Possibly nightstop an E170 in IOM and replace the route that aircraft was operating with a new E190?
