Woot!!!!New ATR 42-500 on the way

[RatherBeFlying]

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

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!  See how long you still work there

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

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....

Very cool-I didn't know about it until now.
