Hi everybody:

Although I love to fly the heavy ones like the 767, I recently discovered the joy of turboprops after trying the ATR72 by flight1. So I wonder if there is any ATR program, if not, any plans for one? I know ATRs are not the main aircraft operated by Delta but they do have their charm as we say here in Brazil.

Regards,

Fred

I'm in the 767 program but often I like to fly the Beechcraft B1900's. I love prop planes.

That's good to know... that's why I see need for a turboprop program.

There is Atr72-500 on stage 1.
Flight1's Atr72 is actually VERY well modelled - all systems functioning, coprehensive manual (over 100 pages), load configurator and much more.
