Can any one else think of any aircraft I could evaluate for my airline? Between 19 and 40 passengers max and short field/ unprepard airstrip performance required. Please provide any URL’s

RE: Any other aircraft?
Dan, thanks for your input, I had looked at the Jetstreams but but for some reason I left them off my list, sorry!
The Js 31 is really nice but a bit old now, I can get a couple of them from an airline here that isn’t using them anymore, but I belive that this new service of mine will really take-off (pardon the punn) and as such I want only the best service available to my customers!
The Js-41 looks perfect, I need to find out more about this, can you supply a URL?

RE: Any other aircraft?
How about the Jetstreams (31 / 41). Don’t these fit the criteria?

RE: Any other aircraft?
Dutchy, I truely thank you for your help and support! India is the only place to get a newly built Do-228
That news about Fokker is a bright glimmer of hope, I’ll look into it immediately
As for my website, it’s being built as we read and write these messages!

RE: Any other aircraft?
Ja,
Is Donier Do228 still in production in Germany or is India the only place where you could get factory fresh -228.
In regards to Fokker. Spares won’t be a problem. Fokker services is still active and can handel all the requerments you might have in regards of spares and upgraded. – www.stork.com – Stork did take some parts of the old fokker firm, including fokker services.
regards,
JW
btw do you have a website for your airline?

RE: Any other aircraft?
Thanks for the ideas guys!
Cesna Caravan is too expensive down here and doesn’t carry enough people, 10 only!
Fokker are no longer in production thus spares and service will be a nightmare, but thanks Dutchy. I love the Fokkers ever since my first flight on an F-27 when I was 5
The DHC-6 is far to common and although has all the right qualities that I need, I am trying to be a bit more recognisable from the crowd!
The Fairchild/Dornier 328 don’t have the Short field/ Unprepared strip performance, which is a let down!
Shorts, Casa, LET, and Dornier are all under concideration already!
At the moment this is how the field looks in my books
Su-80P
C-212
Shorts 360
Antanov An-28 (or Polish built M-28)
LET-410
Dornier 228
