ATR 72 – 200 cargo with LCD Modules, immensely facilitates the loading of oversize goods or containers. The ATR all-freight version offers the unique capability of meeting specific regional cargo market requirements thanks to its wide cross section and a Large Cargo Door allowing transportation of standard ULD containers (88”x62” / 88”x108”) or LD3. This provides a powerful competitive advantage to regional cargo and feeder operators. The installation of the LCD module on an ATR freighter provides operators with a flexible, multipurpose cargo platform for transportation of ULD, pallets, bulk freight or both.

Accommodation of standard ULDs (such as LD3 containers or 88” x 108” pallets) provides a powerful competitive advantage to cargo regional and feeder operators. The large cargo door conversion enables it for ATR 72. Associated to a complete stripping of standard furnishings and addition of specific cargo equipment (9g stop net, floor reinforcement, class E cabin, light or structural linings, window plugs), it provides operators with a flexible, multipurpose cargo platform for transportation of ULD, pallets, bulk freight or both, the gross usable volume being up to 75.5m3 for the ATR 72 model.

Alenia, the original manufacturer of ATR fuselage is responsible for the conversion design, and Aeronavali, Alenia subsidiary, is the selected outfitter.
