I have flown both atr 72 600 and dash q8 400 multiple time on same route. everytime I landed at least 10 minutes earlier with dash 8 compare to atr. other than flight time, I haven't noticed any other difference. atr 72 does consumes less fuel and its cheaper to buy but carries same amount of passengers. so I guess it's a win for ATR.
Yes my favorite out of the two is the ATR. The engine power battle is similar to the C-295 v C-27j. C-295: 2,630 shp; C-27j: 5,100 shp engines. C-27j engines were rated at 4,640 shp but now uprated to 5,100 shp for new built aircraft.
@@Agislife1960 something to do with their icing system. I think there was an American eagle 4184 that crashed while circling over Chicago due to icing.
They fixed the icing issue. Finnair subsidiary Norra has been flying 72-500 in Finland for decades, and above the arctic circle aswell. SAS replaced the Q400 with 72-600 so they do work up north. Zero accidents aswell...
There hardly is a battle between them! You can't compare it in terms of power. ATR is normally powered by PW 120 through PW 124, and Dash8 Q400 by PW 150, a much much more powerful engine.
Ahh but you are wring there with regards to reliability. Having flown both as crew the ATR is slower but much more reliable than the Q400. But the Q400 is the quicker aeroplane not as quiet though as the ATR.
I like both but if I have to chose for shorts and numerous flights, I would take the ATR (600 series) for the better fuel consumption, also I have more confidence in the ATR landing gear, I often go to the Caribbean and I saw some ATRs not only hard land but really fuck de ground and still continue like nothing I pretty sure a Dash landing will have had some issue with those landing. Btw yes the dash 8 outperforms the ATR but I don't think they are really "rivals" its like comparing a twin otter with a king air 350 IMO.
ATR is a heavy maintenance pig! A corrosion pit of problems. Way more time is needed on heavy checks for ATR's than the DHC-8. I've done both! I look forward to the Dash anyday. DHC-8-400 engine is the PW-150. Has twice as much engine shaft horsepower than the ATR-72-500. Prop system on the ATR is a constant nightmare. ATR reliability is way worse than the DHC-8. ATR is cheaper but you get what you pay for.
Why buy French when you can have Canadian? I'd go with the Bombardier. Some how I think the Canadians put more soul, passion and commitment into their aircraft.
I have the pleasure to have logged more that a hundred flights in Dash-8s. Under the rain, in the snow, at -40 C..... Never a single problem, always a great flight. Long live Canadian Planes!!!
@@chaleco82 Perfectly respectable It's just what people prefer, some prefer ATR 72, others, the DHC 8, and both decisions are perfect, no issues with them
I see the Q300 come into and out of Timaru most days, and overhead on the missed approach sometimes. It’s a strong solid machine for regional routes. Bean counters rule though.
ATR LOVER ALWAYS ❤❤❤❤ Reason - Q400 is just not a nicely looking bird with its landing gears hanging from its engine obstructing the view for rows right next to the engines. ATRs on the other hand have tiny engines and their gears r not awkwardly in their engines giving a perfect view to pax and a treat for those who wanna record the outside view. Q400s only minus point is its extra large engines and on top of that the gear droppin down from the engines making it look like a dianosour or something..No Offence to Q400 lovers.
i love the Dash 8 Q400 the wide landing gear looks sexy like a car with a wide body kit. also they have bean flying over my house several times a day well before i was born.
The Q400 looks like crap because someone mounted the gear on the wings. Like it has got a Godzilla-like kick in the butt and now misses something. I take the ATR-72.
sstocker31 ATR is kind of like ford ecoline where as q400 is kind of like Mercedes Benz wagon (forgot the series). Which one more successful in the market, of course ford ecoline because is it is more economical to purchase and run. The same as with ATR.
ATR 72-600 CSA ( Czech Airlines ) OK-GFQ The National Airlines From Czech Also Skyteam Team VS Bombardier Challenger Dash-8 Q400 Austrian Airlines OE-LGG Also The National Airlines From Austria
There would have to be an ATR 92 to make a more complete comparison. Performance? The Dash - Q400 crushes the ATR 72. Those smaller PW120 engines raked on the wing of the ATR 72 look like they would ideally fit the Dash - 300 model. The speed difference of the two planes shows that the ATR is skimping on climb and cruise power in relative terms.
Pilots don't have the say in airline companies. Accountants do, and ATR is a better allround tool. Even more so now that Dash 8 production has been sold to what is in fact a very marginal builder.
the q400 is the better plane on paper 2x the power gains a speed boost roomier interior flies higher superior range....atr is cheaper to buy so more airlines buy atrs
Seriously lol , the q-400 performance is much better 5000HP EACH ENGINE and maximum take off power 5071HP each engine come on guys .. where’s the ATR here 👀👀👀👀👀👀 500ft/m when it’s hot lol !
***** Popular doesn't mean better...... Q400 can fly higher, faster, further, Quieter and still burn less fuel than ATR so please you have to agree with me that the Q400 is better although ATR is a good turboprop too.

The variant in this video is the 500,which is less modern
I mean, if you consider speed and passenger capacity, the q400 actually burns about 17% less than the AT76 per Km / Mi / Hour
Creo que el ATR tiene menos autonomia, menos alcance.
No se si eso influye para vuelos regionales.
Dash has around 5000 hp X 2 and ATR -500 has 2700 hp X 2 , battle done...
Battle done... until bills start coming in.
@@mancubwwa Exactly ATRs are cheaper to run then Q400s.
Mein Favorit ist die ATR... Daumen Hoch!

Dash 8. And it's not close. There's a reason ATRs were pulled out of colder regions. Oh and dash 8s perform like jets but can land on anything.
Why were the ATR's pulled from the colder regions?

@@thomaskettunen3699 How was the icing issue corrected?
Colder regions? Apparently also the recent VoePass-Linhas-Aéreas 2283 accident was caused by icing.
the q400 looks awkward on the ground but when it's in the air, it looks much better plus has more power.
on the ground it's like shit with thoss weirds landing gears
Power?
All depends on money.
Lol I love this Design 😂
OMG I WAS ON THAT ATR PLANE WE WERE FLYING TO PRAUGE :D AND I SAW YOUR FILMING FROM THE PLANE :DDDDDDD
I would've like to fly the ATR

Even with less powerful engines the atr is still the superior aircraft
I love turboprops!
Dash-8 is definitely the better plane, it can fly higher, faster, further, quieter and has better dispatch reliability.
Ahh but you are wring there with regards to reliability. Having flown both as crew the ATR is slower but much more reliable than the Q400. But the Q400 is the quicker aeroplane not as quiet though as the ATR.
I disagree
i in love with the dash8 anytime

@@chaleco82 The ATR wouldn't have had issues as well
@@TheFastMario whatever the case. I still prefer the Dash-8s over any competitor.

Okay you definitely can't beat the sound of the dash on take off 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽💯
Plus with air New Zealand the Q300 look way more slick compared to the ATR.
I see the Q300 come into and out of Timaru most days, and overhead on the missed approach sometimes. It’s a strong solid machine for regional routes. Bean counters rule though.
Dash-8 Q400
I Choose You!
ATR LOVER ALWAYS ❤❤❤❤

but that long landing gear gives the pilot and pax the possibility of much smoother landing in difficult conditions/runways
Check-out the FH-22B!
atr 72 in my opinio.
Such a great video and very stable tripod!!
▶ Thx for *watching* :)
i love the Dash 8 Q400 the wide landing gear looks sexy like a car with a wide body kit. also they have bean flying over my house several times a day well before i was born.
The ATR took a little longer to get off the ground, but the climb out was pretty close to the Dash.
Monster's Inc. the dash out-climbs the ATR any day..
Eine wirklich tolle Szene, als beide Maschinen hintereinander rollen :-) Klasse Video insgesamt!
ATR.!
They're so cute😍😍 I love both!!!
Same
In beauty for me Q-400 wins. In engine power of course q400 wins again but ATR is still bae cause Airbus owes half of it. I love Airbus 😍😙
Andrew Anane I actually like ATR 72
Davidtube HD Yeah the ATR is the best selling! I love them both.
Only because ATR is CHEAPER! Quantity over quality
flying with air dolomiti since i was a baby gives me an atr bias. but the q400 can give some serious competion
dick dickmanbaby lol
Same. God bless air Dolomiti and the Atr
Not to mention the Dash 8 also has an APU
Can we get more of these two turboprop beauties? They're stunning and perfect
No comparission; Dash humiliates the ATR.
ATRs consume less fuel, landing gears are safer and it has more sales than the DHC-8, so don't go that fast
Auque le cueste mas despegar pero al aterrizar tiene un freno muy bueno
Q400 next gen ❤❤❤ Best turbo prop ever
The Q400 looks like crap because someone mounted the gear on the wings. Like it has got a Godzilla-like kick in the butt and now misses something. I take the ATR-72.
I actually like the Dash 8 because of that...
stormeagle28 you may find every planes gear is on the wing so that's why Atr Stubby back gear looks awful
dash 8 is better
Zayden Handfield true but it's a lot expensive than ATR thus negating the original purpose of regional airplane. Which is cheap transportation.
Zayden Handfield no liat atr
Zayden Handfield why?
Is Better ti buy an expensive thing than buying a cheap thing with more Maintenances ...
Dash 8 is more reliable than ATR 72.
Atr has no APU has to keep one engine running on the ground or have service truck hooked to it to keep cool air in cabin dash 8 has APU unit
The ATR everyday!!
I am for ATR 72 ; and do you know than Airbus will build a short version ATR…this is why the ATR is the best ( my opinion )
There's already the Dash 8-100 though
I fly an ATR 72 and I'm sure any dash 8 is better than the ATR....
sstocker31 ATR is kind of like ford ecoline where as q400 is kind of like Mercedes Benz wagon (forgot the series). Which one more successful in the market, of course ford ecoline because is it is more economical to purchase and run. The same as with ATR.
sstocker31 ATR is cheapper but it has more fuel consumption
sstocker31 I fly ATR 72 and it's way better
sstocker31 I doubt an ATR pilot would say that!
What is there inferior about the ATR? Is it the bad power-to weight ratio? Or are there other issues?
ATR 72-600 CSA ( Czech Airlines ) OK-GFQ The National Airlines From Czech Also Skyteam Team VS Bombardier Challenger Dash-8 Q400 Austrian Airlines OE-LGG Also The National Airlines From Austria
I've always wondered. How the fuck do they mold the plane parts? Like the fuelsalage and stuff like that.
TheWackyTuber they bolt them hehe 😂
Andrew Anane hi again Airbus fan
En la versión carguero, cual seria mejor ?..el Dash 8 o el ATR 600 F ?
Saludos
When I talk about being fast and less sound it’s the Dash 8
But
When I talk about very loud cabin and a slow flight it’s gonna Be ATR
Q400 is faster ATR 72 is safer on my experience.
ATR

Dash-7 anyone?
atr
I prefer the Q400 as the noise inside the cabin when in flight is more tolerable
I never noticed how "squatted" these aircrafts were.. is there any reason for that?
the q400 is the better plane on paper 2x the power gains a speed boost roomier interior flies higher superior range....atr is cheaper to buy so more airlines buy atrs
What ever the power is both are going to only fly in same eco speed.. 😂 😂 😂
they are so cute
Dash 8 Q400 better!
Егор Абанин nope
Nope
Dash 8 is weird
ATR Wins!!
the dash 8 q400 and atr 72 500 q400 speed 655 and atr 72 speed 500
Q400 is faster & has a better turnaround time than ATR. Bombardier > ATR
The ATR has a can’t carry as mush wight as well. They are under powered.
Yet there more ATRs as freighters then Q400 as freighters.
Do it again
Se eu tivesse dinheiro compraria os dois modelos de turbo elize aqui no Brasil 4 de cada um
Nice video perfect
Seriously lol , the q-400 performance is much better 5000HP EACH ENGINE and maximum take off power 5071HP each engine come on guys .. where’s the ATR here 👀👀👀👀👀👀 500ft/m when it’s hot lol !
Definitely the Q400!!!
Better single engine performance on Q400.
Dash 8 might be better but i would fly the ATR anyday over the dash 8
Christopher Coke Robinson rubbish
Andrew Anane Thry are both 21 century turboprops but the ATR is more popular and greener of late
***** Popular doesn't mean better...... Q400 can fly higher, faster, further, Quieter and still burn less fuel than ATR so please you have to agree with me that the Q400 is better although ATR is a good turboprop too.
Andrew Anane isnt that much quieter nor burns less fuel than the ATR600
***** Errrr I've flown both and I know what the fuck I'm taking about. This could also help you planes.axlegeeks.com
The ATR 😁
dash 8 kicks ass
dash 8 any day
Air 72-500 win🎉🎉
Dosnt the atr have 2500hp engines and the q400 has 5000hp .?
