Those colours look great on the ATR, can't wait to go for a fly on one.

Anyone in the know .Are they to be delivered to Perth or Brisbane first.We all know they are technically Skywest aircraft but Virgin will operate them out of BNE .

I am hearing a 28june or thereabouts delivery for the first frame but destination not known ?

PER or BNE ???.

...I realise that......just being cheeky..hence the multiple grins. The photo shows red props would look good on this livery but I doubt they could ever be certified??

IL-18 ER-ICB that was resident in BNE for a while a few years ago has blue props (http://www.jetphotos.net/showphotos....gsearch=ER-ICB) so you'd assume it would be possible.
