    No records on RZJets for this bird...the reg itself was used on a pre-delivery Q400 and backintheday on a 732.
    But nothing for a Dash 7. Maybe only a transitional reg?

    C-GCPY was registered in February 2012 and C-GUAT in July 2012

    Serial #s are included so you can trace the individual aircraft...

    Interesting. I knew of 3 Tindi Dash 7's and now 5. The mining exploration and discoveries must be picking up. It'll be mid Dec I know for sure when I go home to Yellowknife. Just stroll over and down to there Office's at CEN9 from my house. I am catching a Air Tindi charter Dash 7 from CYEG to get to Yellowknife this year, lucked out on that thankfully.

    Edmonton to Yellowknife is a fur piece in a Dash Seven. I liked flying the plane but it was godawful slow if you had some distance to cover. Furthest I ever flew one.... Anchorage, Whitehorse, Edmonton, Oklahoma City for a heavy check. Much like my Supercub, will do all sorts of great things, if you have lots of time and are really patient.

    Cheers. T

    This may help. Obviously varies with temp and weight.

    Typically we didn't get above 17,000 ft, though I did take it up to FL 250 on a ferry flight, the certified operating ceiling for operations without passengers.

    We have two flight models for this release of the Dash 7. Both were done by former real world Dash 7 pilots. This might be a first in the Flight Simulation world.

    If you need a tester in FSX please add me to the list. I'm still trying to track down a Fs9 disk for sale in SA TX lol.

    I'd be keen to check the Dash 7 out.

    I've cleared my diary and rescheduled my other flights.

    Thanks Milton.

    Pete.

    Like most around here am eagerly awaiting the new -7 and would love to wear my orange flight tester suit again, but I am working in Oakland for the next week and a half, so my testing would be somewhat limited time wise.

    If you think I could contribute I will gladly do what ever I can...but if you have a full roster in mind already I will just wait at the regular delivery office

    Cheers
    Stefan

    If you have room for one more tester count me in, I will have some time on my hands in the next two weeks! Having some flying time with the Flight1 ATR as well as the QW Dash8 in FS9 I hope I can handle this beast.

    All the best,

    Hello Milton!

    If you are looking for more beta testers, I would like to raise my hand for this project. I was an aerospace engineering student and will be hopefully a prospective pilot trainee.

    Best regards,
    Elmar

    Not a problem, we have a version with no seats, and a combi. :-)

    The bike has been parked the last 16 months due to cancer treatment so she needs a good ride anytime you want.Just found out last week the cancers almost gone and should have a clean bill of health come January 14th so my wife and i plan a coast to coast bike trip in the spring to celebrate.

    When first diagnosed your F7F project was about to come out and i didnt think i would see its release.Last spring things took a turn for the not so good and after 8 surgeries i get out to find your Grumman project done and what a great gift to to spend the long hours of recovery with.When you announced the rework of your DHC7 i was in the midst of heavy chemo treatment and it sure lifted my spirits as this is the aircraft that peaked my love for aviation as a kid.
    To get the chance to beta test is the icing on the cake.
