- Regional airliners count as commercial. ATR, Dash 8, Saab 340 and 2000, Dornier 328, BAe 146 / Avro RJ, Fokker, Jetstream, Beech 1900 and Let 410 aircraft — along with newer types such as the ARJ21, C919 and Superjet — now count as commercial in the Stats category mix and the
commercialsearch filter, alongside the Embraer and Bombardier regional jets that already did. Utility types such as the Cessna Caravan and the Twin Otter stay under general aviation. Aircraft already in your history are moved once when you update.
