Commuter Airliners is a collection of highly successful aircraft for the short to medium range flights. These are the aircraft that populate airports all over the world and there is hardly a person who has not flown in at least one of them. From the small ATR 42/72, via the BAe 146 to the possibly the most succesful aircraft of these days, the Airbus A319/A320, all of these aircraft are done in great detail.
Airbus A319/A320
Build to compete with the Boeing 737, the Airbus 320 (with it's brother the 319), is designed to be efficient and cheap to operate. It was the first airliner in the world to be fully Fly-By-Wire. Also special for an aircraft build in the 1980's is the advanced electronic flightdeck, with six fully integrated EFIS colour displays and innovative sidestick controllers rather than conventional control columns. The A320 also employs a relatively high percentage of composite materials compared to earlier designs. Over a thousand are in operation at this moment, making it one of those aircraft you hardly notice. But passengers like it. It's quiet and, although depending on the operator, often more roomy then then competitive Boeing models.
ATR 42/72
Aerospatiale and Aeritalia (now Alenia) established Avions de Transport Regional as a Groupement d'Intéret Economique under French law to develop a family of regional airliners. The ATR-42 was the consortium's first aircraft and was launched in October 1981. In 1986 a stretched version was launched under the ATR-72 type. With the high wings, and the rather special sharkfin like propellors they are a familiar sight on most airports these days and form the mainstay of many regional routes all over the world. Strong and versatile, they will be around for a long time.
BAe 146
What's better then an aircraft with two engines? Right, one with 4 engines and if possible one that is small enough to park on a small airport. The BAe 146, aka Jumbolino, a regional jet airliner made in the UK was designed to meet the demanding requirements of the regional air transport market where heavy utilisation on short flight coupled with high reliability are the most important requirements. Outstanding airfield performance (very short take-off and landing and high manoeuvrability) and very low noise levels are other attributes of the aircraft, which made it a money making machine for many airlines all over the world. Powered by four 30.0kN (6700lb) Textron Lycoming ALF 502R3s or four 31.0kN (6970lb) ALF 502R5 turbofans, this small aircraft has impressive performance.
