ATR has decided to discontinue the development of its Short Takeoff and Landing (STOL) aircraft, the ATR42-600S.
Considering extensive market research and the prolonged tension within the supply chain, the focus is shifting towards further enhancing the competitiveness of the current product portfolio.
