Got a feeling some of these cities wont have service a year from now. Did Multi-Aero get the Caravans, and the gate at ORD? Didnt think so. Did ORD miraculously approve turbo props to come in now? Do they own more than one airplane? Did they oversell to those two cities? Only time will tell, but there is a reason none of the other proposals promised ORD as a hub.

Does Cape Air fly in IFR conditions? These cities will be IFR only close to 50 - 60 days a year.
My only experience with 9K (all great, btw) are the Florida & San Juan ops with single pilots.

Good questions, not sure exactly how they are going to do single pilot 135 scheduled ops , but I'm sure its some waiver or LOA they have and involves an autopilot. Mabye they will have some FO's on the 402's I guess. NightIp can you fill us in on how this works for your op-spec.

I'm pretty sure they have no problem with this. For the amount of flying they do in the Northeast they have to be able to do IFR. They also already have the EAS routes in NY. So they definitely have already been through this before with EAS and received approval. Correct me though if I'm wrong.
Oh I believe you completely, I'm just interested in the mechanics of how. The guy I asked to clarify is a 9K capt. Ive talked to before....

Thats exactly it; a co-pilot is not required with less than 10 pax seats as long as there is a functioning autopilot. There are some co-pilots in the sysem for guys with less than 100hrs in type or deferred Autopilots.
