Introducing the first ATR-500 in Kenya


Kenyan operator Renegade Air, turboprop lessor Abelo and the regional aircraft manufacturer ATR celebrated the introduction of the first ever ATR-500 aircraft in Kenya, during a ceremony held at Wilson airport. This milestone marks a significant advancement in the partners’ capabilities to serve the growing demand for efficient and reliable air services in the region.

 

The ATR-500, leased from Abelo, has been converted into a cargo configuration to meet the specific needs of Renegade Air’s operations.

 

Kenya is the largest market for turboprops in Africa, with over 80 aircraft of the type currently flying, and could accommodate many additional ATR-500 and latest generation ATR-600 series aircraft, from both Wilson airport and JKIA airport, to serve regular domestic and international routes.
