The famous aviation name of de Havilland is returning to the world’s airways with the relaunch of the Dash 8 twin-engine turboprop, also known as the Q400.
De Havilland Canada will be taking part in the upcoming Dubai Airshow in the United Arab Emirates, its debut in Dubai since the Dash 8 aircraft programme was acquired by Longview Aviation Capital, and re-launched as De Havilland Canada in June 2019.
During the biennial event, De Havilland Canada will showcase a Jambojet Dash 8-400 aircraft.

Todd Young, De Havilland Canada chief operating officer, said, “Our Dash 8-400 aircraft is well aligned with the requirements of a wide variety of operators and has the capability to increase revenue and expand regional networks. We are very pleased to count Jambojet amongst our customers.
“We’re building on the market momentum of the launch of the 90-seat Dash 8-400 variant, the delivery of our 600th aircraft earlier this year, and the capture of our first firm order a few weeks ago as we continue to focus on the cost competitiveness of our aircraft across their lifespan and enhance our customer services and support.”
