Why does Sea Breeze Airways choose to fly a single engine airplane?
Sea Breeze Airways has evaluated the costs of operation of numerous types of aircraft. We have determined that for the market we are aiming to serve, a single engine aircraft is sufficient to carry out that task. Single engine aircraft are much more cost effective to operate, and in turn, we are able to pass on a lower cost to you, the customer. In either a single or twin engine airplane, if one engine is inoperative, the airplane does not take off. When the need arises to upgrade to a larger aircraft, Sea Breeze Airways has the resources available to efficiently make the transition. In researching past aircraft accident and incident data, single engine aircraft in use by air charter services have a lower accident rate than light twin engine aircraft.
