Berjaya Air (Kuala Lumpur) will soon take delivery of its first new ATR 72-500 (ATR 72-212A). Three more copies will follow. The four new turboprops will replace the older de Havilland Canada (Bombardier) DHC-7 Dash 7s on its local routes in Malaysia. The first aircraft (F-WWEC, msn 858) has been painted at the Toulouse factory and will become 9M-TAG on delivery.
