SINGAPORE - R80 commuter aircraft made by PT Regio Aviation Industry (RAI) is targeted to be airing in 2019 later.

"We are currently working on the detailed design for the next year. This includes determining the integration of all the systems, such as determining the engine of whom, and others," said a member of the Board of Commissioners of PT RAI, Ilham Habibie.

Speaking to the press on the sidelines of the Singapore Air Show 2016, on Wednesday, Habibie said commuter plane R80 has passed wind tunnel test in Puspiptek LIPI, in Serpong, Banten, although there are still some things that need to be resolved.

He stated, there are some definite advantages R80 than its closest competitor, ATR-72 series of Italian-French ATR.
Among these are a different class, the design is more advanced, and more efficient to operate.

"In terms of better aerodynamics, have embraced the fly by wire. Although initially more expensive, but after that could be cheaper," he said.

Speaking of the engine, he said, PT RAI was still weighing whether to use Pratt & Whitney PW-150 or Rolls Royce AE-2100.


"Talk with them continue to do. Yesterday with Pratt & Whitney and Rolls Royce tomorrow with," he said.

Although not yet rolled out of the hangar PT RAI production that would otherwise be built in Kertapati, Majalengka, West Java, but he mentioned the number 145 as the number of orders this R80.

He specifies, 100 for the Air NAM, 25 for Kalstar Asia, and 20 to Trigana Air.

"The operators are involved from the beginning. They also provide input on the draft that they want to get, which is not derived from an airplane that had been there," he said.
