The company I work for is getting a ATR 42-500 tomorrow, to add to the one we already have to make our ATR count of 2 ;D

Cool part is that it was 2nd from our current ATR off the assembly line so the c/n will be one more than our current.


The only crappy part is that it will be quite dirty from it's recent c-check and guess who will have to clean it up ::)


I'll be shure to post some pics when it arrives

I dare you to actually say "woot!" when somebody mentions you're getting the new 42.  I DARE YA! ;D  See how long you still work there :D

Sounds cool, all the ATRs are cool turboprops.  Better than the Dash 8s, when every time they land the landing gear almost shears off :o :o :P

Admit it beefy, the coolest turboprop is the Basler BT.67 ...  :)

The one that looks like a DC-3?  That's a turboprop (is it a turboprop version of the DC-3? methinks it is)? Or am I missing a joke here....
