No standout or problem seats in this cabin.
On Skippers' high-demand Western Australian charter and FIFO routes, two-three with rear-mounted engines. The front cabin runs quieter; the two-three layout puts a middle seat on the right, so the two-seat left side is the comfortable choice.
The front rows on the left two-seat side are the best — quietest, off first, and no middle seat; row 1 windows may have bulkhead legroom. Noise climbs towards the rear-mounted engines at the back.
The last rows have limited recline and lavatory proximity; the middle of the three-seat side is the least comfortable spot; the rear rows by the engines are loudest. Given the choice of the Fokker or a Dash 8 on a route, the Dash 8's two-by-two has no middle seat.
The Fokker 100 is a regional jet — two Rolls-Royce Tay turbofan engines mounted at the tail. It cruises at typical jet altitudes and speeds, unlike the turboprops that also serve remote Western Australian routes.
The engines are tail-mounted, directly beside the rear rows. Passengers seated towards the back will hear and feel the engines more than those in the forward cabin, which is the reverse of the experience on under-wing-engine aircraft.
There is no dedicated extra-legroom product. Exit rows, if accessible, offer more space; otherwise the pitch is consistent throughout the single Economy cabin. The focus is on utility transport rather than comfort tiers.
