If you want to know what aircraft will be used for the new routes just select a flight on the Flybe site (I tried DBV), select a ticket with a reserved seat option, then scroll to the bottom of the page to a schematic of the airframe. I'm sure there's a few of you able to identify the aircraft from the seating arrangement. May be provisional of course - shows how they're thinking. The one I looked at I think is a seat plan for an Embraer 175.
Just following up on some other posts (ref Wycombe post 3439) the rational for the deal with Stobart becomes clear. With a commitment to take 4 175's by 2018 (or presumably default on the contract) what better for Flybe to share the risk with a partner who has even more to lose than them.
