Turkish regional jet project


The Turkish Regional Jet was a project to produce Turkey's first regional airplane. The project would use a modified version of the Dornier 328, the TRJ-328 and TRJ-628. The project was cancelled in 2017 because it was “economically unfeasible”.

TRJ-328

The TRJ-328 will be used as a test bed for the TRJ-628. Capacity is limited to 32 seats. The aircraft will fill direct and frequent flights to and from small cities in Turkey which are not currently possible with larger aircraft.

TRJ-628

The TRJ-628 will feature 60 to 70 seats and will be an overall larger airplane.
