Air Wisconsin British Aerospace ATP
N859AW
(c/n 2036)
Fourteen BAe ATP's ("Advanced
Turboprop") were ordered by Air Wisconsin in 1989. These
were intended to
augment the longer range BAe 146 pure jets and take over the duties
performed
by
the now aging F.27s. In the event, only ten were delivered,
the penultimate one of which is
seen above in
this nice image by Alain Durand at Outagamie County Regional Airport in
Appleton,
Wisconsin in
August of 1991. In 1993 the ATPs were transferred to United's
Feeder Service.
