ATR 42-300/320
Since its entry into service in December 1985, the ATR 42 has become a reference in the regional air transport industry for reliability and profitability and is now a best seller in its market segment.
The basic ATR 42-300 is fitted with two PW120 engines rated at 2,000 shp each. The ATR 42-320, fitted with two PW121 engines rated at 2,100 shp each, has been developed to offer increased performance in hot and high conditions and short runway operations.
The standard cabin layout is 48 seats at 30-inch pitch. The dimensions of the front cargo compartment can be adapted to accommodate 50-seat and 46-seat configurations at 30-inch pitch. The ATR 42 is remarkably easy to operate and maintain and is equipped with efficient, low-fuel-burn engines. Its operating costs are 15%-20% lower than those of its competitors.
