DESCRIPTION:
The Bombardier Dash 8 or Q-Series, previously known as the de Havilland Canada Dash 8 or DHC-8, is a series of twin-engined, medium range, turboprop airliners. Introduced by de Havilland Canada (DHC) in 1984, they are now produced by Bombardier Aerospace. Over 1,000 Dash 8s of all models have been built.

The Dash 8 was developed from the de Havilland Canada Dash 7, which featured extreme short take-off and landing (STOL) performance. With the Dash 8, DHC focused on improving cruise performance and lowering operational costs.

Fly safe! Have fun! ~Bacon

PERSONAL OPINION:
This is my FAVORITE turboprop airliner of all time, however, my family for whatever reason hate it; complaining it is too loud and the landings are ridiculously uncomfortable... However, i love it, from it's design to its skinny wings, its just a good looking prop plane!

    I heard you like dash-8s so i built a dash-8 while in a dash-8 much more than 8 months ago, so you can fly a dash 8 while pretending to fly a dash-8 while not being able to afford a dash-8. Praise kek.

    The wingtip navigation lights (red and green) shouldn't blink, they should be steady.
