Its hard to tell by the story it may just connect at Kalgoorlie to the existing Perth-Kalgoorlie-Melbourne service. Will have to wait til Skywest produce the new schedules.

Skywest
Isn't the current Kalgoorlie-Melbourne route stretching the range of the fokker 100?
I have heard of it calling into Adelaide for fuel. |

Ryan,
Kalgoorlie Melbourne I believe is not a prblem, it is going into the other direction which may stretch it. Since they reinstated flights , we haven't had one divert to Adelaide. But before the pulled out last year, we got one or two. |

I am suprised that Skywest don't fly in their own right to ADL. A weekly flight from Karratha to Adelaide and Port Hedland to Adelaide with a F100 could work as these routes have no competition. It would save people time from going via Perth. Do they have spare F100 capacity? As seem to have a lot in Perth sitting on the ground for long periods of time.

Sorry to bring and old thread up, but this months AA has a 4 page story on Skywest. Lots of its history and future plans in the article. Still plan to get another A320. Also states 4 F50s are surplus to their needs

There is currently always one F50 that is used for parts at the airport. Currently it is FNB. Most of the F50's do one flight a day and then get parked up.
