Phasing out Airbus at SSV?
 
Just a question about fleet types.

Does anyone know if it is downsizing of the A330 aircraft only to go B767 at sky service or if it is downsizing the A319/320 fleet also to go boeing?

Remember Sky'was the first Co' to have the 330 in Canada!!..
Early model was 'short' on range,and couldn't be 'turned' in the Carib in less than 2 hours....Ergo it wasn't a Family(Co')favourite.
Sky'acquired several more 330's for ROOTS,thence leased them O'seas..With the 'new'pax weights the 320 's range reduced.
The 757/767 seem's to fill the Market niche at the moment..
Any other theories??:ok:

oldebloke,
I believe the caption on the aircraft read "First A330 in North America". :cool:
