Hi guys,
just a quickie for those in the know...rumour has it that Aurigny,
Air Contractors and Air Wales all have orders for more ATRs.
Can any one confirm or deny this..i know this is a 'rumours' site
but anything anyone has would be great.
Cheers

Why, do you have a second hand ATR for sale?:E
Aurigny are looking for more ATR's and I think they recently bid on one but I dont think they will be getting another for a while. They plan to phase out the Saab's and replace them with ATR's but I dont think that will happend for at least a year.
Not sure about the others.

Air Contractors are adding to their growing fleet of A/C with additional ATR's. After the recent take-over of BAC it is likely more ATR's will eventually replace the Shed and F27 aircraft, mostly due to many suppliers such as Fedex etc. looking for a larger hull.
Haven't heard any feet developments at Auringy however another Irish operator Aer Arann is now the largest ATR operator in UK-Ireland and still growing.

Don't go throwing your pennies towards Sky Blue just yet chaps (Andy Foam loves to take your money!!) There is a possible scheme to run within the next few weeks to a month at the outside that will involve a very cheap JET rating complete with 500 hours line flying.
Watch this space.................:ok:
