ATR Familly Advantages
Operational Flexibility: Short Runways from the Arctic to the Desert
ATR's success amongst operators is also due to its flexibility to operate in any severe or restricted environment, such as on short or narrow runways, in hot and high airports, on semi-prepared fields or in extremely cold temperatures, allowing air services to remote areas with limited facilities and bad weather conditions. The ATR is operated daily in cold weather conditions by North-European and North-American airlines.
