Is Atr 42 Safe

Is the ATR 42 safe? Yes, it is safe, as any modern airliner can be. The ATR 42 is in fact, a modern aircraft. Its first flight was on August 1984, so it is 36 years old design, not that old and about 500 units have been built.

Are ATR airplanes safe?

The ATR 72 worldwide does not have a great safety record, the recent Transasia crashes being examples. However, Jet Airways overall safety record is very good, so I would not worry. The probability of a plane crash (even on an ATR 72) is significantly less than a road accident on the streets of Calcutta.
