The new aircraft, 'EI REM', an ATR 72-500, offers Aer Arann customer's new levels of comfort and efficiency. Several factors combine to make the ATR an environmentally friendly aircraft: lower emissions of CO2 due to reduced fuel burn; 70 per cent lower fuel consumption than a jet on similar routes; and new standards in the industry for quietness. |
