ATR is excited to announce the release of the 5th issue of the External Change Catalogue, presenting 12 new developments and offering operators a comprehensive suite of solutions tailored to enhance the efficiency, comfort, and operational capabilities of their ATR aircraft.  

Each solution is designed and fully supported by our network of specialised External Design Organisation partners, carefully selected based on their demonstrated expertise and authorisation to certify solutions through relevant regulatory authorities. 

These upgrades aim to enhance operational efficiency, reduce maintenance costs, and sustain regulatory compliance. 

For each solution installed, the STC supplements are systematically available for consultation in ATR Tech Data portals (ATRnavX and e-flight ops Doc). 

The release of this 5th edition of the catalogue showcases a refresh of our extensive partner network, including our latest partnership with JANA Inc.  

Offering New Solutions to Address Evolving Customer Needs 

This edition introduces new solutions developed in direct response to customer feedback: 

  • Passenger Comfort: Providing cabin solutions that are designed to elevate the onboard experience, catering to passenger expectations for a more comfortable journey.
  • Connectivity: Adding solutions like high-speed internet access and IFE systems to ensure passengers stay connected, enhancing their in-flight experience.
  • Passenger Inclusion: To support accessibility, offerings such as AudioBack® are designed to provide a standalone hearing-aid loop, enhance safety, comfort, and well-being for hearing-impaired passengers equipped with hearing aids.
  • Maintenance Cost Reduction: New protective features, including partitions protection against luggage impacts that aim to reduce repair rate on partition, reduce maintenance costs and extend the life of aircraft components.
  • Enhanced Operations: boosting operational efficiency and safety while providing precision navigation features and capabilities for pilots in compliance with modern airspace requirements. 

A Flexible, Customer-Centric Approach 

Our philosophy is to provide our customers with high-quality, adaptable offerings as well as exceptional flexibility and responsiveness. This is why we structured our upgrade solutions around a Make or Buy policy. While our upgrades catalogue encompasses a wide range of in-house developments, our external catalogue relies on a partnership-based model. Both allow us to swiftly address emerging requirements, ensuring that our customers benefit from the highest standards of quality and performance.
