It would appear that flights planned to start from SOU to MAN and I think EDI from before the end of the Winter season have been removed from the booking engine.

Word on other fora is that some of the ex-Flybe1 a/c that they were due to acquire are in such a poor state having been parked-up in northern Europe for 2 years that alternatives needed to be sourced.

Yes, Flybe have had too many of late, but the record of other regionals (Emerald and Eastern especially spring to mind) is not a lot better of late.

You can have all the lead time in the World, and all the tech logs, but if spares are needed (due to unforseen problems) and the lessors/MRO's can't get them, for example, then you're in the trouble.

BHX to GLA and EDI have been largely operated since they started by the leased-in Spanish ATR72. Perhaps there's a hard-stop on the lease period and then a gap before more Q400's are available.
