The commercial airlines are challenged by various factors, especially for a newly built commuter airlines. To select appropriate aircraft which flies in mountainous and the desert areas must strictly meet the operations and security regulations. The aim of this article is to use comprehensive evaluation models based on Information Entropy and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to analyze suitable choices of the evaluation and selection of a fleet of aircrafts for local commuter airlines. . The output of the study verifies efficiency and its airworthiness of the aircraft, which are important to the commuter air carrier within the given range and payload. In the end, some recommendations are given for selecting the suitable aircraft type.
