Frequently Asked Questions — Short
What does Short Brothers aircraft make?
Short Brothers (now part of Spirit AeroSystems/Bombardier) is a Northern Irish manufacturer best known for the Short 330 and Short 360 commuter turboprops (19-36 seats). The Shorts Tucano T1 military trainer also bears the name. On the used market, Short 330/360s serve cargo and passenger roles in remote operations. The rugged, unpressurized design with fixed gear suits unimproved airstrips.
Are Short 330/360 aircraft practical for cargo operations?
The Short 360 (improved variant of the 330) offers a spacious, boxy cabin ideal for cargo. The fixed gear simplifies maintenance and the robust structure handles rough fields. Acquisition costs are very low given the aging fleet. However, the unpressurized cabin limits altitude, and Pratt & Whitney PT6A-65R engines require standard turboprop maintenance budgets. For small cargo operators in remote areas, they remain functional workhorses.
