Major problems with FLYBE Q400s
Heard from various sources that Flybe suffered huge problems with their Q400s falling over. One apparently is stranded at Lyon with a complete hydraulic failure, another at Birmingham and a third in Edinburgh. By my reckoning that is 3/4 of the fleet. I wonder how reliable the 17 new ones will be. I would have thought that reliability is a key quality for low costs and having flown 300s in my past that is not what Bombardier produce.
Anyone from the company know anything about yesterdays events?
