Overview

Thank you for downloading my new version of the DHC8-300 series. It is the first step from me building an regional airliner for FS98. Version 2.0mp features a more realistic texture on the fuselage, landing lights, tail light and animated gear and spoilers. This is Version 2.0mp. A Version 3.0 is planned featuring AF99 circle, landing lights, tail light and the maximum moving parts.

History

The DHC8 Dash 8 program was launched in 1983. Main features of the Dash 8 were the high cruising speed for a prop aircraft of 525 km/h and a comfortable cabin. This program was enhanced by offering different versions of the Dash 8: the DHC-8-100, DHC-8-300, DHC-8-300Q, DHC-8-400Q.
Tyrolean Airways operates a total number of 25 aircraft of the DHC-8 family. They are used for their regional routes within Austria and near destinations in the neighbour countries of Austria.
