To further strengthen its fleet, India-based Spirit Air has signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) with UK aircraft manufacturer Britten-Norman. It is for purchasing six brand-new BN2T-4S Islander planes powered by twin Rolls-Royce (Allison) Model 250 turboprop engines. With a total output of 400shp, the aircraft has a 22 per cent increase in disposable payload.

While the new aircraft are being built, Spirit Air will initially take delivery of four refurbished units of the same plane to start its expansion in operations.
