Considering that each of these planes needs at least 100 people to operate, it is a huge investment for such a small company

The thought of huge planes stuffed with passengers fills me with gloom. Herded through the airports. Cheap deals for sheep...

I hope they ordered them with different engines. They have a tendency to explode.

goddog, a little simplistic. With the requested safety checks properly undertaken from now on, the engines should be fine.

Skymark is a cheap attempt at trying to undercut JAL and ANA, I wish them luck, but they better pair up with a cheaper Chinese airline if they ever want to make a profit.

Gee how can they raise a bankroll for 4 of these biggies? Oh, wait! Maybe they'll over extend themselves and get saved by the government in the near future. Whew!
