IPR redelivers its first ATR72 LCD conversion

IPR Conversions has redelivered its first large cargo door ATR72-202F conversion.
The Switzerland-based company said the delivery of the ATR aircraft to Summit Air of Yellowknife, Canada, was its first large cargo door conversion since the purchase of the supplemental type certificate from Alenia last year.
Summit Air booked an additional ATR72 large cargo door conversion slot for 2017 and is considering enlarging its ATR fleet in the future.
The aircraft, MSN444, is equipped with an Ancra Cargo Loading System allowing five 88"x108" containers to be loaded.
