There weren't that many flying them in the US to begin with so that is really of no relevance. They are far more popular in Europe. They may not be the most fuel efficient but they are not big gas guzzlers either. The newer versions, as this airline seems to have acquired (RJ70) is a more modern and more fuel efficient version than the early BAe-146 models.

Also, I think some Bangladesh/Nepal operators were also using them.

Their eye is on the western region after that. Let me see if I can post a link to the article. _________________ My Flickr photos My JP.net account Back to top COUGAR Member Joined: 01 Jan 2007 Posts: 986 Location: Bangalore Posted: Fri Apr 20, 2007 5:01 pm    Post subject: From the looks of it classic Harshvardhan style planning! 2 aircraft: one based in IXC : doing IXC-DEL-IXR-CCU and vv daily. with the other based in DEL as standby and for the odd charter work. 2 aircraft can be "swapped" every Sat as one returns for weekly checks. Sensible IMO. But they will really become efficient as fleet grows to atleast 5, with one aircraft based in DEL and the others spread out in subsidiary "bases" within one hour flying distance from DEL to form a "STAR" hub! Now they should consider atleast 2 RJ100's as a growth derivative. so 3 Rj70's and 2 RJ100's for each "STAR hub". The 4 engine whisper jet's STOL capabilities means it will open up many hill stations like Doon to Jet service for the first time! What remains to be seen is how the RJ70 economics work out. _________________ http://www.cougar-rides.com <B>Live to Ride - Ride to Live</B> -- Back to top Aiel Member Joined: 19 Dec 2006 Posts: 927 Location: Bangalore Posted: Fri Apr 20, 2007 7:39 pm    Post subject: Vabby, u were right, they are a Gurgaon based company. found the link I was mentioning earlier.

Spice Jet also serves only cookies. I see nothing wrong in serving only vegeterian food. _________________ Save Maharashtra!
