The real question I think is why weren't Aurigny allowed to order 3 new Dorniers in the first place, rather than one new one and two 30 year old a/c. G-OAUR seems reliable, but probably wasn't scheduled to be operating today.
Skybus Twotters manage to perform short cycles between Lands End, Newquay & St Marys
