The British Aerospace Jetstream 41 is a larger and more powerful version of the Jetstream series, designed to cater to the increasing demand for regional airliners with higher passenger capacity. Introduced in 1992, the Jetstream 41 was developed to compete in the 30-40 seat regional aircraft market. With its turboprop engines and higher performance specifications, the Jetstream 41 became a reliable workhorse for regional airlines, offering improved range, speed, and efficiency compared to its smaller predecessors.

The aircraft features a pressurized cabin with seating for up to 29 passengers, though the seating configuration can vary depending on the operator's needs. The Jetstream 41's design also includes a more spacious interior, with improved passenger comfort for longer regional flights. Despite production ending in 2001, many Jetstream 41s are still in service, often used for short-haul routes and commuter services.
