indeed I do.
1) Rent out a cheap but effective aircraft. I am a big fan on the B727 - Costs no more than 16 M and can fly at least 100 pax over the distance of 1500 KM
2) Keep your company image up. Take it bigger than about 15 and customers will keep rolling in (that is the most important advice. thanks to it my profit is rolling in)

When taking the aircraft, always take a closer look to fuel efficiency. The higher the fuel consumption, the higher the load factor you will need to make any profit on the aircraft.

Whoa. What kinda aircraft is that? A DHC-3? Because that is your problem right there.

Your aircraft is too small! ;D

You need MDs and 737s on that route dude.
