After a few weeks of trying, I managed to grab a decent shot of the new livery Saab 340 in some light. Seen here on departure for Comox as "Pasco (PCA) 3051" operating for WestJet Link.

After FIVE years since the launch, the first aircraft has now been repainted into the new WestJet livery. C-GOIA, the former Integra Air Saab 340 which flew for Pacific Coastal and later WestJet Link, returned from maintenance this afternoon sporting the new colours. Looking forward to seeing it enter service in the near future!

Taxiing out for engine runs this afternoon is the newest Saab 340B for WestJet Link (Pacific Coastal). First time it has been out of the hangar since arriving in mid July. Note the missing prop spinners. Now wearing fleet number "585".

Arriving on the recently introduced YKA-YVR service as WS3070. Operated by Vancouver based Pacific Coastal Airlines through a capacity purchase agreement.

Missing "Link" titles. Arriving as WS3057 from Vancouver.

The newest Saab 340B delivered to Pacific Coastal a few days ago. A massive shame and quite frankly an embarrassment for WestJet that this was not painted into the new livery, which has been out for 3+ years now and not a single aircraft as been painted into besides new builds. Also note the lack of "Link" titles that the rest of the WestJet Link fleet carry.
