<p><strong>Calgary, AB (March 25, 2026) &#8211;</strong> De Havilland Aircraft of Canada Limited (De Havilland Canada) is proud to announce that the Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) for its CL-415 Avionics Upgrade was officially approved by Transport Canada. This milestone marks a significant advancement in the modernization of the iconic waterbomber platform.</p>



<p>The certification is the result of a highly collaborative effort between De Havilland Canada and its subsidiaries, Mid-Canada Mod Center (MC2) and Avionics Design Services (ADS), in partnership with Universal Avionics. Together, these teams have developed a state-of-the-art avionics solution that enhances operational capability, reliability, and long-term supportability for CL-415 operators worldwide.</p>



<p>“The approval of this STC not only modernizes the CL-415 but also reinforces our commitment to delivering advanced, mission-ready solutions for aerial firefighting operators.” said Jean-Philippe Côté, Vice President, Programs and Business Improvement at De Havilland Canada. “We look forward to deploying these advanced avionics systems across the CL-415 fleet and into the next generation of DHC-515 aircraft.”</p>



<p>This milestone comes during an important period for De Havilland Canada’s waterbomber program, as the company continues to invest in the modernization and long-term sustainability of its fleet. The newly certified avionics suite will also be incorporated into the upcoming DHC-515 aircraft, ensuring fleet commonality and operational efficiency across both platforms.</p>



<p>De Havilland Canada extends its sincere appreciation to the many teams who contributed to this achievement, including engineering, production, flight test, certification, supply chain, programs, maintenance operations, and technical support. Special recognition goes to the MC2 and ADS teams, whose expertise and dedication were instrumental in bringing this program to certification.</p>

<p><em>From Opening the Canadian North to Connecting Colombia, a Legendary Aircraft Reaches a Historic Milestone</em></p>



<p><strong>Calgary, Alberta (March 20, 2026) &#8211;</strong> De Havilland Aircraft of Canada Limited (De Havilland Canada) proudly celebrates a defining moment in aviation history with the delivery of its 1000<sup>th</sup> DHC-6 Twin Otter. This landmark aircraft, along with the 999<sup>th</sup> Twin Otter, will be joining the fleet of SATENA, Colombia’s state-owned regional airline, marking both a global production milestone and a meaningful chapter in a growing partnership.</p>



<p>Reaching 1000 Twin Otters produced and delivered is a powerful testament to an aircraft that has become an icon of rugged reliability, versatility, and purpose-driven design. Originally built to open up the Canadian North, the Twin Otter has spent decades connecting remote communities, supporting economic development, and operating in environments where few other aircraft can perform. Today, that same spirit of connection continues in Colombia, where this milestone aircraft will help link communities across mountains, jungles, coastlines, and rural regions.</p>



<p>“Delivering our 1000th Twin Otter is a proud milestone for De Havilland Canada,” said Brian Chafe, CEO of De Havilland Canada. “Built to connect people in the world’s most challenging environments, the Twin Otter’s success reflects the skill and dedication of our teams and the trust our customers have placed in this aircraft for generations. We’re pleased to see it continue serving communities around the world.”</p>



<p>The aircraft represents SATENA’s fourth De Havilland Canada aircraft, reinforcing a partnership grounded in performance and shared purpose. For SATENA, whose mission is centered on serving remote and underserved regions of Colombia, the Twin Otter is more than an aircraft, it is an essential tool for national integration and opportunity.</p>



<p>“We are honoured to receive the 1,000th Twin Otter,” said Major General Óscar Zuluaga, President of SATENA. “This aircraft will play a vital role in strengthening connectivity throughout Colombia. As we welcome our fourth De Havilland Canada aircraft, we celebrate not only a milestone in aviation history, but a continued commitment to serving communities that rely on us every day.”</p>



<p>For more than six decades, the DHC-6 Twin Otter has proven itself as the benchmark for utility aviation, from Arctic operations to tropical climates, humanitarian missions to commercial service. Its exceptional short takeoff and landing (STOL) performance, durability, and adaptability have made it one of the most reliable aircraft programs in Canadian aerospace history.</p>



<p>The 1000<sup>th</sup> delivery is more than a number, it is a celebration of the people who design, build, maintain, and operate the aircraft, and the countless people around the world whose lives have been connected because of it.</p>



<p>As the Twin Otter continues its journey into the future, one thing remains unchanged: it was built to open up the North, and it continues to open up opportunity wherever it flies.</p>

<p>This agreement highlights the demand for the Dash 8-400 aircraft across the Asia-Pacific region, where its blend of speed, efficiency, and flexibility gives airlines the ability to connect key urban hubs and regional destinations while maintaining strong operating performance.

<p>De Havilland Canada’s refurbished aircraft program combines upgraded cabin interiors and modernized systems with the proven durability. The global Dash 8 fleet is supported by De Havilland Canada’s comprehensive customer support network, including parts services, technical support, and tailored maintenance solutions.</p>

<p>Paris, France (June 17, 2025) – De Havilland Aircraft of Canada Limited is proud to showcase the Twin Otter Classic 300-G at the 2025 Paris Air Show. This next-generation Twin Otter, on display for the first time at a major international airshow, is fully assembled, ready for delivery, and awaiting final certification before entering service with Zimex Aviation, a long-standing De Havilland Canada customer and global operator of utility aircraft.&nbsp;</p>



<p>This aircraft will be number 998 Twin Otter produced since the aircraft was launched. The 1000th Twin Otter will be completed shortly and is scheduled for delivery to SATENA of Colombia in the second half of 2025.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>



<p>The Classic 300-G is equipped with a new Garmin 1000 avionics suite and an all-new cabin interior, which is now included as standard on new Classic 300-G production aircraft.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The new interior of the Twin Otter enhances passenger comfort while significantly reducing the aircraft&#8217;s Basic Empty Weight. The panels are all-new, crafted from durable and lightweight materials. Redesigned passenger interfaces are integrated into the ceiling and new cabin window bezels that allow more light to fill the cabin. The all-new seats are 15% lighter, come with e-leather upholstery as standard, and feature a convenient fold-flat backrest. These improvements allow operators to transport more passengers or cargo per flight, maximizing efficiency and operational capacity.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The Classic 300-G is the newest generation of the Twin Otter, carrying passengers, transporting VIPs, moving cargo and performing special missions in the world’s most unforgiving environments. When mounted on amphibious floats, these aircraft move seamlessly between paved surfaces and water-landing areas. It features a lighter airframe, improved payload capacity, enhanced fuel efficiency, and greater operational flexibility—all while retaining the rugged, STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) performance that Twin Otters are known for.&nbsp;</p>



<p>“This aircraft is a testament to De Havilland Canada’s continued investment in innovation and our commitment to supporting our global customers with efficient, modern, and dependable solutions,” said Brian Chafe, CEO of De Havilland Canada. “We are thrilled to present the 300-G here at SIAE and even more pleased to see it enter service with Zimex Aviation, a trusted partner with deep experience in diverse and challenging environments.”&nbsp;</p>



<p>The aircraft on display is the first Classic 300-G built to production standard and will join the Zimex Aviation fleet following final certification. Zimex, headquartered in Switzerland, operates worldwide in humanitarian, cargo, and remote logistics missions—making the upgraded Twin Otter an ideal platform for their demanding missions.&nbsp;</p>



<p>“We can confidently say that the Twin Otter aircraft have been the backbone of our business for the last 56 years,” said Daniele Cereghetti, CEO of Zimex Aviation Ltd. “It brings us great excitement to once again be the launch customer for the latest series and we are thrilled to welcome the new Twin Otter into our family. We are also immensely proud to be the first operator of the new DHC-6 Twin Otter Classic 300G with EASA approval. Not only do we take great pride in being a De Havilland endorsed service centre, offering extensive maintenance services to customers around the globe, but we also wholeheartedly appreciate the exceptional capabilities of this remarkable aircraft.” </p>
