FedEx’s Growing ATR Freighter Lineup The ATR 72-600 freighter began commercial operations with FedEx in 2020, marking a significant step in the modernization of its feeder fleet.

Now is the perfect time to start converting ATR 72-600 aircraft,” asserted ACIA Aero Leasing CEO Mick Mooney.

Neither ATR nor Silver specified how its 72-600s would be configured, but ATR did say Silver’s 42-600 models would come with 46 seats in a 2-2 seating configuration.
