The real issue is the Saab couldn't take all the pax bags and fuel needed so they'd launch two. Well what happens when one goes down for mx... At least that was what was explained to me by a guy very familiar with the operation. The Q asfaik can't legally go in and out of there way, either way that's awesome I love the Saab 2000.
