Enhanced Performance 

PW127M: ADDITIONAL INCOME IN ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE

ATR -600 series offer increased capacity, making the aircraft more attractive, even in the case of operational reach. 

ATR offers a more powerful engine: PW127M, which gives strength thermodynamics 5% higher in the Take-Off and Continuous Max. 

Thanks to a new level, the performance will be improved in the following ways: 

• Take-off weight of 500 kg and 600 kg (1100 pounds to 1320 pounds) when there are limitations 
• Clean Ceiling Single-machine increased by approximately 1,000 ft 

MULTI-RATED ENGINE POWER

History
Aerospatiale and Aeritalia ( now Alenia ) established Avions de Transport Regional as a Groupement d' Economique INTA © ret under French law to develop a family of regional airliners . ATR - 42 is the first aircraft consortium and launched in October 1981.

The first of two ATR - 42 prototype flew for the first time on August 16, 1984 . Italian and French government awarded certification in September 1985 and the first ATR - 42 entered airline service on December 9, 1985 .

Early ATR - 42-300 is the standard production version of the ATR - 42 family until 1996 and has a capacity of greater variety and higher takeoff weight of the prototype . The same ATR - 42-320 ( also withdrawn in 1996 ) differed in having more powerful PW - 121 machines for hot and high performance is better, whereas ATR - 42 Cargo is change good / fast version of 42-300 passengers .

ATR -42 - 500 is a significantly improved version of the first plane and the interior features a revised , stronger PW - 127Es to significantly increase the cruising speed ( 565km/h/305kt ) driving six propeller - propeller blades , a 1850km ( 1000nm ) maximum reach, efis cockpit , elevators and rudder extending ATR - 72 ( described separately ) , plus new brakes and landing gear , and strengthened wing and body weight of the aircraft to a higher level. First ATR - 42-500 deliveries in October 1995 .

ATR is part of the Aero International ( Regional ) , a consortium of regional aircraft which was established in January 1996 to incorporate ATR , Avro and Jetstream . AI ( R ) handle sales, marketing and support for both Atrs , plus RJS Avro and Jetstream 41, until liquidation in mid-1998 when the ATR regained its independence .

In mid-2000, ATR launches cargo conversion program for both -42 and -72 , which involves installing advanced freight door and modify the cabin for delivery.

Aerospatiale N 262

Aerospatiale N 262

The Aerospatiale ( Nord Aviation) 262A is a short distance commuter jet machining up to 29 passengers. Originally known as Super Broussard MH262 , Nord 262 was designed by former la Société des Avions Max Holste . Development of 17 seat commuter light aircraft , known as MH250 Super Broussard began in 1957 . Prototype MH250 , supported by two Pratt & Whitney Wasp - 1830 piston engine , first flew on May 20, 1959 . It was quickly realized that the turboprop aircraft should work and further development of the aircraft resulted MH260 grow and supported by Turbomeca Bastan turboprop . In October 1959, Avions Max Holste signing a co - production with Nord Aviation until new aircraft could be produced . On February 16, 1960 Cessna Aircraft became a 49% shareholder in la Société des Avions Max Holste , entitled Nouvelle Société des Avions Max Holste .

The name was later changed to Reims Aviation SA Prototype MH260 , the F - WJDV , flew on July 29, 1960 . Ten MH260 with the rectangular plane built by Nord Aviation in Nord 260. In 1961 from a significant redesign of the Nord 260. It leads to Nord 262 with a redesigned fuselage of a uniform circle , pressure and more powerful powerplants . This pressure Nord 262 first flew on December 24, 1962 . On January 1, 1970 the three major French aircraft company nationalized - Sud - Aviation , Nord Aviation and missile manufacturing company , SEREB - merged into Aérospatiale . As a result of this merger Nord 262 became Aérospatiale products . When production ended in 1976 , a total of 110 Aerospatiale ( Nord ) 262 built.

On 11 April 1970 Nord 262A OY - BCO and OY - BKR from Cimber Air Denmark A / S comes in eelde Groningen in the Netherlands . The OY - BCO first flight on March 30, 1967 as F - WNDD and served as OY - BCO to Cimber Air on July 8, 1967 . It is sold in the United States in 1977 and registered with the N274A Altair . N274A transferred to the National Commuter Airlines April 1982 ; rented to Pompano Airways in January 1984. N274A registration canceled on March 3, 1999 as the Nord sold in Honduras . In Honduras this Nord 262 operated by Aerolineas Sosa as HR - ARP .
