Produced to the highest standards, Herpa diecast metal models are developed in collaboration with aircraft manufacturers and the airlines and are recognized by discerning model airplane collectors worldwide for their unparalleled, accurate realism, attention to detail and exceptional quality. True-to-scale, this Herpa 1/200 scale Olympic Airways Bombardier Q400 measures approximately 6-7/16-inches long with a 5-5/8-inch wingspan. A Display Stand is included. During the 1970's, de Havilland Canada was busy with the production of their 4-engine, 50-seat STOL Dash 7 - DHC-7 - transport. However, to meet the airlines' request for a similar yet more economical and faster aircraft, the Dash 8 - DHC-8 - was developed. The prototype Dash-8-100 first flew in 1983 and entered service in late 1984. The initially released Dash-8-100 was smaller than the Dash-7 and typically operated in a 37-seat configuration. In 1992, Bombardier Aerospace purchased de Havilland Canada and released an updated version of the popular Dash 8 as the Dash-8-200, which featured more powerful engines and increased cruising speed. A stretched version of the Dash-8-200, known as the Dash 8-300, eventually went into service with the original 50-seat capacity of the earlier Dash-7. Bombardier discontinued the Dash-8 100, 200 and 300 versions between 2005 and 2009, replacing it with the larger and more capable Dash-8-400, simply marketed as the Q400.
