ATR 72-500 600
Är detta flygplan ATR 72-500 600 det bästa man kan sätta in på södra Sverige inrikes, ur operationell och ekonomisk synvinkel.
+1700 tillverkade, är mkt fuel effektiva, opereras dagligen av många bolag även här uppe i norden.
Med tanke på vårt klimat upp till severe icing condition, max sidvinds kompostant etc.
Är 15 min turn around realistiskt inkl. tankning.
Finns sims här, heavy maint..

“Performance wise in windy conditions, the ATR has the advantage of NOT having windshear detection, which makes them less likely to divert due to winds (this is not a discussion whether ATR pilots are jeopardizing safety, just pure facts).”
This is NOT making ATR a superior aircraft than any other. Would take the CRJ/E195 over ATR any day
Finnair har flugit ATR i många år i samma klimat som Sverige…vad är problemet?
It’s a brilliant aircraft on the short segments. Very fuel efficient and yes it is possible to do very quick turn arounds (usually we wait for the loaders, as it is a pain to load the aircraft).

Yes, the ATR are sensitive to icing, but well trained pilots are perfectly capable of flying in our climate. For more than 7 years on the ATR in Scandinavia, I have only experienced once that we had to land with a reduced flaps setting due to ice build up.
So all in all a great aircraft.
Den tar lika mycket sidvind som andra flygplan
Det ÄR inget vinter flygplan.
