Romania’s flag carrier Tarom today took delivery of its first ATR 72-500 aircraft.  This follows the contract signed last year, valued at some US $ 37 million, for two ATR 72-500s. The airline currently operates a fleet of 7 ATR 42-500s, and will take delivery of its second new ATR 72-500 later this year.

The ATR 72-500 aircraft delivered today is configured with 68-seats and powered with PW 127M engines. The aircraft is also equipped with the “Elegance cabin”, which features the most advanced technological enhancements in the field of passenger comfort in regional aviation.
