Ryanair and other small companies had only one or two units, as far as I know. Even today with a fleet of 5 ATPs, SATA has one of the largest fleets of the type:
SATA’s ATPs are worked very hard with utilisation of around 1500 hours a year and annual cycles of 2500 a year, reflecting the short sector lengths, which average only 30 minutes.

You're confusing ATP's with 748's

3 in a fleet is not big for 748 or ATP

A lot of airlines had far more than three 748's.....three is a small fleet
