Doesn’t sound like they plan to now. In their press releases about their fleet, they’ve mentioned an “ultimate fleet of ATR42-500s” The first 3 have already been acquired from HOP! with the first one (G-LMRA) already painted. They are to get 2 ATR72-600s leaded from BE, however these will be operated elsewhere (GLA/EDI/ABD). Maybe a few years down the line they will, but in the next year or so it doesn’t sound like there is any plans at present for a new order.
