They drop in and out of routes like nothing else.

Don't get me wrong, I have no issue with the commerciality aspect - just don't play us as fools and try to sell it to the world as "doing it because they have an interest in the community" - they don't ! ! ! ! !
So what routes have they started and stopped in a short period? Most of the routes operated by the E170's were unprofitable hence they were dropped with the removal of the E170's.

Qantaslink had pulled out of just as many routes (if not more) as Virgin of the last 10 years.

Once more ATRs arrive the number of flights to TMW will increase and other regional towns such will be added to the network.
