• Choice of MTOWs for lower navigation and landing charges
• Low maintenance costs through use of the MSG-3 maintenance philosophy, mature systems, highly durable structure, extensive use of BITE and simple-to-use maintenance and test panel
• High reliability: allows high utilisation to lower capital / fixed costs per trip
• Full airline start-up support by Fokker Services is available at competitive rates
• Low spares' costs when making use of Fokker Services' ABACUS spares pooling concept

The Fokker 50 provides a unique opportunity to cost-effectively start new routes, replace older turboprop equipment or even high-cost 50-seater regional jets.
