ATR-72 500F Fedex Livery AIRISO

ATR 72 is a twin-engine turboprop, short-haul regional airliner developed and produced in France and Italy by aircraft manufacturer ATR.The number "72" in its name is derived from the aircraft's standard seating configuration in a passenger-carrying configuration, which could seat 72–78 passengers in a single-class arrangement.
This Specific aircraft has been retrofitted to a freigher version and now operates for FedEX.

In response to airlines often wanting to replace their early production ATR models with the latest generation ATR series, as well as to answer demand from cargo operators for the type, ATR has a dedicated freighter conversion programme known as the ULD Freighter. The conversion involve complete stripping of furnishings along with the addition of floor strengthening.

This ATR-72 is equipped with the newer PW127 engine, rated at a maximum of 2,750 shp to achieve improved "hot and high" takeoff performance. It can land and takeoff in high airports with short runways.

In a standard configuration, the aircraft does not have an auxiliary power unit. Instead the ATR 72 is equipped with a propeller brake (referred to as "Hotel Mode") that stops the propeller on the No. 2 (right) engine, allowing the turbine to continue running and provide both airflow and electrical power to the aircraft while on the ground.


To engage hotel mode (apu) turn on the fuel pumps then press the hotel mode button and then start engine number 2.
