The Fokker 70 would do all right at LCY. It would be excellent to see them operating jets and would open up possibly some new expansion of routes etc, although at the moment they are on a winning formula with their current aircraft.
Their idea of serving regional airports and potentially expanding upon them as done very well and has had a very positive outcome on regions. As you have said what they do for the local economies is excellent and we have benefited from continental tourism from the Benelux region from this as an example. No doubt an area like Exeter and Antwerp will benefit even more in the future.
Definitely a good airline voted best for travel to and from the Benelux region I believe.
