Bombardier Dash 8

rdfs:comment

The Bombardier Dash 8 or Q-Series, previously known as the de Havilland Canada Dash 8 or DHC-8, is a series of twin-engined, medium range, turboprop airliners. Introduced by de Havilland Canada (DHC) in 1984, they are now produced by Bombardier Aerospace. Over 1,000 Dash 8s of all models have been built, with Bombardier forecasting a total production run of 1,192 aircraft of all variants through to 2016. The Bombardier Dash 8 is a family of small turboprop aircraft built by Bombardier in Canada. The family of aircraft is known for having STOL capability. While originally produced by de Havilland Canada, Bombardier Aerospace took over production, after purchasing DHC from Boeing in 1992. The variants -100, -200 and -300 have stopped production. The production numbers of the type are decreasing because customers today are opting for the ATR models.

n45:abstract

The Bombardier Dash 8 or Q-Series, previously known as the de Havilland Canada Dash 8 or DHC-8, is a series of twin-engined, medium range, turboprop airliners. Introduced by de Havilland Canada (DHC) in 1984, they are now produced by Bombardier Aerospace. Over 1,000 Dash 8s of all models have been built, with Bombardier forecasting a total production run of 1,192 aircraft of all variants through to 2016. The Dash 8 was developed from the de Havilland Canada Dash 7, which featured extreme short take-off and landing (STOL) performance. With the Dash 8, DHC focused on improving cruise performance and lowering operational costs. The engine chosen was the Pratt & Whitney Canada PW100. The aircraft has been delivered in four series. The Series 100 has a maximum capacity of 39, the Series 200 has the same capacity but offers more powerful engines, the Series 300 is a stretched, 50-seat version, and the Series 400 is further stretched to 78 passengers. Models delivered after 1997 have cabin noise suppression and are designated with the prefix "Q". Production of the Series 100 ceased in 2005, and the Q200 and Q300 in 2009. Bombardier is considering launching a stretched version of the Q400. The Bombardier Dash 8 is a family of small turboprop aircraft built by Bombardier in Canada. The family of aircraft is known for having STOL capability. While originally produced by de Havilland Canada, Bombardier Aerospace took over production, after purchasing DHC from Boeing in 1992. The variants -100, -200 and -300 have stopped production. The production numbers of the type are decreasing because customers today are opting for the ATR models.
