Specs Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 One of the best aircraft ever produced by a Canadian Company. They'll still be finding it uses for it when it's 100 yrs old.Green energy tycoon to launch UK’s first electric airline | Airline industry | The Guardian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeker Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 The Dash-6 is a fantastic aircraft (I've flown it) but it's a blunt instrument. The struts, the non-retractable gear, the big fat wing - good for STOL, off-airport bush work. I do not think this is a good aircraft for airport-airport commuter flights. The Beech -99 has the same engines, carries the same passengers (19) and cruises about 50% faster. Completely unsuitable for bush work but beats the DHC-6 in airport operations.
