Hello All
I am wondering what is the justifications of some companies in Eastern Europe and increasingly in Western Europe and Africa operating Cargo Aircraft that have a maximum 2000 kilogram payload the LET410 and the Caravans come to mind most.
How can they make money on such small rates and how do they find the clients in order to operate these Aircraft, I know the Caravan is a single Pilot ops Aircraft as for the Let and Perhaps even the Metro 3 are these Aircaft single or 2 pilot ops.
Thinking of Western Europe I believe Air Atlantic over in Coventry in the UK had a metro 3 that they recently sold why did they do so did the small Plane not make them enough money and did they operate it on a single or 2 pilot basis, I would very much like to hear from my fellow ppruners with regards to these questions.
Regards
WA
