Vincent Aviation getting Saab 340's

[Raropilot]

Any further info on where they are going to operate the saab 340B's? A friend of mine is keen to apply - currently flies 340A elsewhere in the world... Any contact details much appreciated

anyone know more about the Timor Air outfit?? Are they leasing the plane from Vincent or is Vincent running the whole show just with the Timor livery??

[ryanboxer]

Timor or management has very little experience in the industry and will be leasing.

Customers choice, 90 mins in a Saab 340 in the weather, or 50 mins in a ERJ170 above the weather with FF points and full cabin service?

I can remember the Kendal 340A's struggling to get above F180 crossing Bass Strait in ISA+ conditions, so how will the "A" model perform in the Tropics with a LSA of 11200' and no APU.

Any ex Macair crew care to comment?

I think it's a B/B+ model

Simple B Model
