DH8D (Dash 8 Q400) (3 operated),

The airline also operated the DHC6,

And the previous name for the airline LC Busre had the Metroliner III (SW4).

Why should this airline be added?
Founded in 1993 as a cargo airline, it shifted into charter routes in 1998 followed by becoming a scheduled domestic carrier in 2013 when the Q200’s began to arrive to replace the old Metroliners. The airline then acquired some 737-500s and Q400s in 2015 to further build up their domestic network and to expand outwards into South America. It had plans to acquire 2 737-900’s according to some reputable sources, so as to expand into North America however this never came to fruition before the airlines collapse in 2018. It would make for a great addition to the game with the 737-500’s providing routes from Lima to SCL and GRU and add another livery to those airports.

So doing the measurements for the Q400, it does appear that it could JUST make it to SCL with 50 miles to spare on its maximum range depending on some sources but according to the in-game range it wouldn’t be able to.

The airline was supposed to receive 2 737-900’s like I mentioned above but it was also supposed to receive 3 737-200 Adv’s for South American routes to help the 737-500’s and expansion, however it struggled to get the Miami route set up due to many delays and ultimately it never took them on.
