Financing has been approved but now it is a matter of finding airplanes. Even if it were a different type all together, according to management it will be considered. They know that bringing a different type onto property is a BIG hassle, it is not outside the realm of possibity. More Dashes would be ideal, but ATRs and Saabs are not out of the question.

I don't see that happening either. I think getting other aircraft types is even more unlikely to happen. C5 just doesn't have the resources to start another fleet type. They're just now starting to somewhat figure out the Dash's. I doubt they want to go through that again.

It would be a nightmare for management and us to bring another fleet type on property. The info I posted above came directly from the chief pilot. According to him, pretty much everything but Beech 1900's will be considered if they can be gotten for the right price.
