The IPTN N-250 is a regional aircraft commuter turboprop, an original design by the Indonesian firm IPTN (Industri Pesawat Terbang Nusantara) (now Indonesian Aerospace), N letter (not CN) in front of -250 means Nurtanio. The aircraft was named Gatotkaca after a character from Mahābhārata.
This aircraft was IPTN's effort to win the market in 50-70 class passengers with advantages in its class (when it was launched in 1995). It was t
he star exhibits at the 1996 Indonesian Air Show in Cengkareng. But this plane was eventually dropped after the Asian financial crisis of 1997.
The N-250 program were being reconsider to be rebuilt by BJ Habibie after getting approval from the President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono and the changes in Indonesia that are considered democratic. However, to reduce production costs and improve price competitiveness in international markets, changes were made which have reduced performance such as reduction in engine capacity, and the planned removal of the fly-by-wire system. In August 2012, both parties Erry Firmansyah, PT Eagle Cap and both sons of Habibie from PT il Thabie agreed to finance N-250.[1][2][3]
B.J. Habibie advocated production of the plane (although now he is not a director of IPTN) as the rival Fokker F-50 is no longer in production because of Fokker Aviation's bankruptcy in 1996.
