Jetstream Aviation Capital Delivers ATR 72-600 to Loganair

Jetstream Aviation Capital Delivers ATR 72-600 to Loganair
Jetstream Aviation Capital has delivered an ATR 72-600 passenger aircraft to Loganair, Scotland’s largest regional airline, marking a significant expansion of the carrier’s turboprop fleet. The aircraft, bearing serial number 1126, was handed over on October 3, 2025, representing the fourth delivery under a multi-aircraft agreement between the two companies. This addition is set to enhance Loganair’s scheduled and charter passenger services across the United Kingdom, underscoring the airline’s commitment to efficient regional connectivity.
Strengthening a Longstanding Partnership
The delivery extends a partnership between Jetstream and Loganair that has spanned more than a decade, previously encompassing aircraft such as the Saab 340 and Saab 2000. The ATR 72-600 is a vital component in Loganair’s ongoing fleet modernization efforts. Founded in 1962 and certified by the UK Civil Aviation Authority, Loganair operates a diverse fleet including de Havilland DHC-6, ATR 42, and ATR 72 turboprops, alongside Embraer ERJ145 jets. Its network serves both passenger and cargo routes throughout the UK, with the Britten-Norman BN2 Islander playing a crucial role on short-haul flights in the Orkney Islands, connecting remote communities.
Industry Trends and Market Dynamics
The delivery arrives amid a renewed interest in turboprop aircraft within the regional aviation sector. Although ATR aircraft maintain a limited presence in the United States—with only 49 in service out of approximately 1,200 globally—their operational efficiency and suitability for short-haul routes are increasingly recognized. Recent developments, including Aegean Airlines’ order for additional ATR 72-600s and JSX’s efforts to rebrand turboprops in the U.S. commercial market, reflect a broader industry trend toward embracing these aircraft for regional operations.
Competitive pressures are also shaping strategic decisions. Airlines such as Cabo Verde Airlines have introduced ATRs to improve domestic connectivity, a move that may influence Loganair’s approach as it seeks to sustain and expand its regional network. The continued collaboration with Jetstream Aviation Capital positions Loganair to adapt effectively to these evolving market conditions.
Through this latest delivery, Jetstream Aviation Capital not only reinforces its longstanding relationship with Loganair but also solidifies its presence in the regional aviation market. Both companies remain focused on expanding sustainable, high-quality air transport options for passengers and communities across the UK, responding to a shifting landscape that increasingly values the efficiency and versatility of modern turboprop aircraft.
