SKYBUS EXPRESS AIRLINES In January 1991, Skybus Express was selected by the DOT to operate subsidized Essential Air Service between Atlanta and Anniston and Gadsden, Alabama. Like Southeastern Airlines before it, Skybus operated the flights with 16-passenger, Australian built GAF Nomad aircraft. Traffic was lighter than expected and Skybus filed to abandon service only a few months later but was forced to continue flying into 1992, when GP Express took over the routes.
