De Havilland Canada has been designing and manufacturing aircraft for over 90 year. During this time, it has been responsible for the production of many remarkable commercial aircraft, including the Beaver (which is considered the ultimate bush plane, against which every other bush plane is measured), Otter, Twin Otter, Dash 7 and Dash 8. It also produced the unique Buffalo and Caribou military transports, some of which ended up in airline operations. The wide range of aircraft types have been used in many diverse ways, from floatplane operations in Canada, Alaska and the Pacific to up-country flying in Twin Otters in Africa and elsewhere, and from glacier operations with the Turbo Otter, Dash 7s in Greenland to flying for many major airlines worldwide. Combining history, facts and figures with anecdotes, commentary and quotes from numerous sources, this highly illustrated book take a nostalgic look at the legendary aircraft of de Havilland Canada and their operations.
