I recently heard that this machine the Dornier 228 was going back in production.
Who has these rights? Is there anything left of Dornier/Fairchi

Re: Dornier 228
All true. But the Crew seats are the most comfortable ones I've ever worked in. Still looks like the carrying case for the otter though.

After a weeks stint, I'd spend a day each with my chiro, and rmt. Mind you, after your years up north you're probably shaped differently than you used to be.

Dornier seats comfortable??? WTF are you smoking? My back and arse will never be the same cause of those seats!!
Re: Dornier 228
I dont know much about the 228 but found the read interesting, especially the part where they put a PT6 on one during development. The Metro was the same one was built with a PT6 but the Garrett was chosen.
Its a wonder some outfit hasnt tries this conversion on the DHC-6
