Included this from 2012 for the old airlines,

E190 (Embraer 190LR) (12 operated until 2013),

Below at GRU,

Not in-game,

AT72 (ATR 72-200) (2 operated),

AT73 (ATR 72-210) (2 operated, 1 until 2011, 1 until 2013),

E120 (Embraer 120) (3 operated, 1 until 2009 so not many photos),

Why should this airline be added?
A regional Brazilian airline founded in 1998, it was absorbed into Azul in 2013. It was based out of Belo Horizonte and operated flights across Brazil, being a regular visitor to GRU. In 2011 it was due to be bought as part of TAM to become a regional subsidiary of theirs but the deal fell through. It would be a great airline to see either just an option in Brazil, or as a local airline at GRU for players to operate in the early days of playing the airport.

Missing the ATR 72-200

What you posted was a ATR 72-210

[Hirohitoswaifu]

You’ll have to tell me how you can tell the difference . Also, is there any difference in the ICAO code between the 2?

[DHC8]

The prop dome is slightly longer on the -210 and the code is AT73

[Hirohitoswaifu]

Perfect, I see what you mean actually it does look a little longer. I’ve popped it in separately.
