new start-up in China will be ordering 30 Q400s to start in 2015. You don't see too many turbo-prop operators in China so I guess they'll have a shortage of captains for this operation. Chinese airlines would be the type who would offer expat captains month-on, month-off type of deal.
Not many Dash8 operators in Asia. Travira Air in Indonesia has a few; Wings Air used to have 3 but they have been replaced by ATR72s.
