Sterling Airways rir igjen (som Aleutian Airways)

[LN-MOW]

Vel, nesten. VIA Airlines gikk i ch. 11 i 2019 og er siden blitt kjøpt opp og nå har de rebrandet til Sterling Airways ... Så får vi se om de får badeball på halen. Skjønt kanskje ikke, de planlegger visst å plukke opp et par ruter i Alaska først ..

Jacksonville, FL — Sterling Airways, a Wexford Capital LP portfolio company, is pleased to announce that it has received its Part 121 certification from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and authorization to resume scheduled passenger service from the Department of Transportation (DOT).

The new airline, currently based in Jacksonville, Florida, is led by Chief Executive Officer Wayne Heller, former Chief Operating Officer of Republic Airways, along with several former members of Heller’s management team that led Republic’s initial growth of 24 to 30 airplanes a year.

“While Sterling has been certified as an ERJ 145 operator, we’re very much a blank canvas that can move quickly to meet the needs of potential partners and markets crippled in the wake of COVID-19”, said Heller.

Jeg tilstår ... Men kunne ikke motstå fristelsen.

Ser ut som de skal fly Saab 2000 for Aleutian Airways, i samarbeid med Alaska Seaplanes. Så tar over vel mye av operasjonene etter PenAir, som vel forsvant etter Ravn-konkursen

AA approval adds the Saab 2000 to parent Sterling Airways’ Part 121 Air Carrier Certificate, allowing service from Anchorage Ted Stevens to begin under the Aleutian Airways brand after completing proving flights to demonstrate the type's safety, reliability and operational soundness.

Stort marked i Alaska og det navnet minner litt of Reeve:

Det står respekt av det navnet, gode gamle dager, osv..

Når jeg jobbet i Midwest Express, så ansatte vi David Reeve. Hadde store forventninger, men de klippet vingene hans og puttet han i kontor uten vindu. Ingen av hans visjoner ble til realitet, en av de de var og kjøpe 428/728/928.

Deres 3. Saab 2000 på plass, ikke mange som øker deres flåte av disse lenger..
