...mmmm... I don't think the ATR-72 looks like that.

Check out this picture: it's similar in proportion but the landing gear is completely different.

I'd say it's a Fokker of some kind.

Ciao ciao!

Nice shots!!!! Think Jet2 is one of the newer low cost airlines, not sure where they fly from but think they will be flying from the new Doncaster airport when it is up and running?

Very good!

It is easy to recognize an ATR: it has wider body, and much rounder nose than the DASH8.

Or in a joke:

How do you recognize for sure, an ATR from a DASH8 ? - Simple: if you put the planes side by side, then the ATR will stand next to the DASH8 ;)
