TOULOUSE, France - ATR booked firm orders for 113 aircraft in 2017, along with 40 options. The level of firm sales in 2017 tripled the number of orders the regional turboprop manufacturer received in 2016 (36). ATR says its order count ranked first among all the sales of regional aircraft below 90 seats. The manufacturer delivered 80 aircraft during the year (70 new ATR 72-600s, 8 new ATR 42-600s and 2 second hand ATRs), and reached a book-to-bill ratio of 1.45. ATR now has a firm order backlog representing three years of production. ATR also stabilized its annual turnover at US$1.8 billon, among the best performing financial results in its history. ATR sold aircraft in every region of the world and in particular has invested substantially in growing markets. ATR also increased its support capabilities with the introduction of two new training simulators, while two additional simulators will be introduced soon. ATR also reached a maintenance milestone of having 300 of its aircraft covered by its comprehensive total care support Global Maintenance Agreement (GMA) program by the end of 2017.
ATR was founded in 1981 and is a leader on the market for below-90-seat regional aircraft. Since its creation, ATR has sold nearly 1,700 aircraft.
