Jetstream 31 / 32
After Scottish Aviation went bankrupt and was merged into British Aerospace in 1978, BAe decided the design was worth further development, and started work on a "Mark 3" Jetstream. As with the earlier 3M version for the USAF, the new version was re-engined with newer Garrett turboprops which offered more power (flat rated to 1020 shp with a thermodynamic limit of 1100 shp) and longer overhaul intervals over the original Turbomeca units. This allowed the aircraft to be offered in an 18 seat option (6 rows, 2+1), with an offset aisle, and with a water methanol option for the engine to allow the ability to operate at maximum load from a greater range of airfields, particularly in the continental United States and Australia.
