The De Havilland Canada DHC-7, widely recognized as the Dash 7, is a regional turboprop aircraft line celebrated for its Short Takeoff and Landing (STOL) performance. De Havilland’s ambition was to create a 40-seater aircraft to compete with other models utilized by busier regional airlines, addressing not only remote routes but also the broader regional market. The Dash 7, while quieter, retained most features of its predecessor, the Twin Otter. Its inaugural flight took place in 1975, and it remained in production until 1988, coinciding with De Havilland Canada’s acquisition by Boeing, subsequently followed by Bombardier. The DHC-7-101 model has undergone modifications for passenger or cargo loading use, incorporating a left-side forward cargo door.
