CONNECTING THE FUTURE Turboprop market forecast 2018-2037 atrbroadcast atraircraft atraircraft atr atrchina
introduction The competitive environment of regional aviation is showing its utmost importance for developing local economies and territorial cohesion. It not only feeds hubs, but more importantly, it allows connections to the world’s regional capitals. Everyone likes fast and easy trips from a nearby airport. Not only do turboprops offer the right capacity and technology, they also reach places where no other aircraft can go: more than one third of the world’s commercial airports rely exclusively on turboprops. As new regions emerge, new regional routes will be opened and developed. This is another mission at which turboprops excel. By efficiently connecting such a large diversity of communities, with the most limited environmental footprint, turboprops are revealed as the most efficient choice to quickly enable and sustain economic development of many regions. Looking 20 years ahead requires us not only to study the past and the world today but also to imagine the networks that will shape our future. Christian Scherer Chief Executive Officer ATR
