PILOT'S - Dash 7 MSFS

This iconic 4 engine turboprop with STOL capability is now available for Microsoft Flight Simulator, it is built after the de Havilland Dash 7 turboprop aircraft.

Perhaps one of the most graceful 4 engine turboprops built. The de Havilland Canada DHC-7, popularly known as the Dash 7, is a turboprop-powered regional airliner with short take-off and landing (STOL) performance. It first flew in 1975 and remained in production until 1988 when the parent company, de Havilland Canada, was purchased by Boeing in 1986 and later sold to Bombardier. In 2006 Bombardier sold the type certificate for the aircraft design to Victoria-based manufacturer Viking Air.
