Why should this aircraft be added?
While this aircraft is very similar to the Saab 340 that exists in-game, it served in a very different market. This was Embraer’s first major aircraft type to be commercially successful outside of the domestic market in Brazil. It was a popular aircraft around the Americas especially, seeing use in North America at the US regionals as well as still being used to this day in the caribbean. To this day, the EMB120 is still used in the north of Australia, regions of Africa, and of course the caribbean, including to SXM. As of now, Sunrise Airways operates the EMB-120 to/from ANU and SKB.
