In focus: fleet development, ATR 42/72 vs De Havilland Canada Dash 8-400

The ATR 42/72 family and Dash 8-400 are the

main commercial turboprops in the sector.

At the start of June, Bombardier sold the

Dash 8 line to British Columbia’s Longview

Aviation Capital, which placed the pro-

gramme into the newly formed De Havilland

Aircraft of Canada. The new holding compa-

ny inherits a backlog that stands at 49 former

Q400s, according to Cirium’s Fleets Analyzer.

A total of 260 ATRs are currently on order,

including 208 of the larger ATR 72 variant.

The global fleet of ATR-family aircraft has

risen from just under 800 units in July 2010 to

over 1,200 today. The number of Dash 8-400s

rose from almost 300 to 500 over the period.

A total of 7% of Dash 8-400 aircraft are

currently parked: the same ratio as in 2010.

ATR’s highest parked ratio was 17% in July

2018, and averaged 13% in the study period. ■
