So that's only 2x serviceable EMB170s? 2 parked with 0 engines, 1 with only 1 engine and 2 with 2 engines. 50% engine unserviceability. With the Metros parked as well and the Bras fleet under utilised, times must be a bit tough for TL. Alliance will be doing well though.

SWO about to head back to the lessor I believe. Be scrambling to extend that I imagine. Guess that 190 they were talking about can’t come soon enough lol
Yep. Availability not quite as bad as portrayed yesterday. Three frames have flown today: ANF, SWO, ANO
Correction: ANV is also flying today. Four out five is encouraging.

There are a lot of jet operators in Australia which are struggling with engines at the moment.
That would be a big ouch, what part / unit is in supply crisis
I believe there is a supply problem at Honeywell that will ground all the Conquests in Australia too.
would that be for the Dash 8 engine or the Dash 10 engines. They're different.
Where are Alliance flying the F100s to out of Darwin?
Also noticed a Network (Virgin) F100 parked up during the wee hours on Friday morning, never seen one up here before - where are they operating to and from?

Yes I did!! Today's????
And there was an Alliance F100 parked on the ramp a few months ago, only asking the question????
Yes, there was a F100 that had Virgin painted on the tail at Darwin Airport at about 1230 am last Friday morning, I saw it with my own EYES.
I'm not up with the current who's doing what in Australia, hence the stupid question. Obviously stupid questions from stupid plebs like me aren't allowed on this forum....................................................... .................

No idea about Virgin F100s.
The Virgin F100s you see belong to Skywest/VARA and operate the run Going Nowhere mentions.
I believe the Alliance F100 operates their own mining contract that 'apparently' Air North had been doing on thier behalf until more recently. I believe the aircraft is based up there, but not the crew who are merely flown in to operate it from their existing bases.
