Aircraft




Central Mountain Air operates a fleet of two twin-engine turboprop aircraft types designed for regional service. The Beechcraft 1900 and Dornier 328 are both pressurized regional transports suited to connecting mid-sized and smaller communities across western Canada.
These turboprop aircraft excel at operating from regional airports with shorter runways and unprepared surfaces, making them ideal for the airline's network connecting remote destinations. The twin-engine configuration provides redundancy and safety over varied terrain. Both aircraft types are fuel-efficient, keeping operational costs manageable for regional routes while maintaining passenger comfort and reliability.
The modest cabin sizes of these aircraft reflect Central Mountain Air's focus on point-to-point regional connectivity rather than high-capacity trunk routes, enabling the airline to serve communities that cannot support larger jet operations.
