the Bus is doing mainline flying to cities that were very much mainline until the 2000’s. think 737-200 and 727 flying. No one was complaining about us flying these routes back then.
and by the way the guppy pays the same the first year and operates under the same UPA as the Bus and goes to all those same cities too. it even does 3 and 4 leg days and more ANF flying then the Bus does. So what’s the difference between the two for a first year pilot? Not much of anything.
This a million times over. I talk with a few of my mentors (long retired) and they say these city pairs were served by 727/737 and were lost in BK/scope loss. They are happy that we are serving them again
