From the ear to the ground here at SIR
Apparently the F100's were never in contention and this was a rumour that got out of control.... sounds familiar! The airbus from Atlantic was a good option but thats a big beast for here on a daily service and tbh - think it was too big and actually sensible they didnt do anything with it.. Then they tried to deal with Skyworks...that clearly didnt work out but by the sounds of things a pair of CRJ 200's will probably be ok as long as too many people dont want to carry their ski's
. After all its only a stretched biz jet and we have lots and lots of those in here!
At least its still alive and making progress, which for a start up is positive in any light!
