4. 9 Turboprop Fleet and Deliveries <strong><strong>For</strong>ecast</strong><br />
The passenger turboprop fleet for world airlines exist 4,300 units in 2001.<br />
That is 1.8 times of the fleet size in 1981.<br />
The routes for turboprop in 2001 are almost categorized to the regional market<br />
which includes under 1,000km routes, and the traffic is projected to grow at 4.3% per<br />
year for the next 20 years. But many of over 20 seater turboprops will be replaced by<br />
regional jets, therefore the fleet of turboprops will shrink to 3,200 in <strong>2021</strong>.<br />
Assuming the average life of a turboprop is 28 years by the trend, two-third or<br />
2,900 units of the current fleet will be retired during the forecast period. The deliveries of<br />
the turboprops will be 1,800 units for the period.<br />
