Briefing
Rise Air’s Dec. 19 acceptance establishes the airline as the first Canadian operator of the ATR 72-600, starting commercial integration of ATR’s newest regional turboprop in Canada.
This development follows Transport Canada’s recent type certification for the ATR 42-600 and ATR 72-600, which removed a regulatory barrier to registration and commercial operation in Canada.
The delivery adds to ATR’s recent delivery momentum and market activity — see other recent ATR 72-600 handovers and the OEM’s push into regional markets including the US replacement opportunity for 50-seat regional jets.
