ATR promotes Cuchet to SVP engineering

Turboprop maker ATR has promoted Daniel Cuchet to senior vice president engineering and head of design organisation. The appointment, which took effect ahead of ATR’s February 6 announcement, will see Cuchet also join ATR’s executive committee. He will report to chief executive Nathalie Tarnaud Laude. Cuchet was ATR’s chief engineer, a position he took up in 2019 after previously working for Airbus for over a decade. ATR said Cuchet’s promotion  will require him to play a “key role” in supporting it “in its continuous development to contribute towards sustainable regional mobility”.
