It's not quite as easy as reshuffling.

Jetconnect would need to add the 800 to their AOC, get their tech crew a NG conversion, do a differences course for their cabin crew etc etc.

That being said it's surely only a matter of time, the 300/400's aren't as competitive on a product nor capacity basis with PB 800s or NZ 320s.

Compare these two pictures of ZK-JTR:

Attachment 326

Attachment 327

Can someone tell me why the LH engine is on the RH side in picture 2? I am positive that the engine strake sits on the inboard of the engines.

Also, note that the brow windows have been removed.

A few of the original VX series 800s have had them removed as well. VXG and VXK spring to mind.
