C1,
DHL in Africa are using the ATR & did investigate the container option but decided to stick to bulk loading. Seems it's a bit of a pig to trim & the containers offered no advantage. I've seen proposals but not the 'real' thing. I'll see if I can dig anything up & let you know.

This is another way of Loading!!! Delta found they had extra capacity if they loaded this way!
