When people think about hydrogen-powered aviation, they often imagine an entirely new aircraft.
We believe the transition can start much sooner.
The De Havilland Dash 8-300 has connected regional communities around the world for decades. Designed with efficiency, reliability, and regional connectivity in mind, it remains one of the most capable aircraft in its class. It’s a testament to the forward-thinking engineers who created a platform that continues to evolve.
More than 95% of the flights evaluated in our Concept of Operations fall within a 750 km mission, making the Dash 8-300 a strong platform for early hydrogen-electric adoption.
By building on an existing certified aircraft platform, the focus shifts from replacing regional aviation to accelerating its transition.
Hydrogen aviation doesn’t have to start from scratch. Sometimes, the fastest way forward is to build on what already works.
