 AVSIM Aircraft Review: de Havilland Canada Dash-7
By all respects de Havilland had a winner on their hands, but as is the eerie fashion of Canadian aircraft history, it was a plane ahead of its time.
Ultimately, the Dash 7 is in a class all its own--oddly familiar with those Lancaster-like engine nacelles, yet still modern and high-tech, wrapped-up in no-nonsense simplicity.
Born before the age of glass-cockpits, the Dash 7 panel is decidedly utilitarian, so those of you who thrive on big EFIS displays will be a little challenged at first.
