Embraer EMB-120FC

A fast turboprop feeder that fills the gap between a light twin and a regional jet.

Embraer EMB-120FC available for charter through Fliteline
Regional feeder

Nearly four tonnes at turboprop running costs

Freighter conversion of the Brasilia gives 3700 kg of payload, 25 m3 of bulk hold and 1100 km of range, loaded through a 135cm by 129cm door. Cruise speed sits closer to a small jet than to most propeller freighters.

It suits daily feeder lanes where the parcels build past a single engine type but never justify a jet. The hold is bulk only, so palletised freight has to be broken down, and the 1100 km range means wider networks are flown in stages.
