Not compatible with FS2004. With backing from the Canadian government, de Havilland Canada began in late 1972 the development of a larger capacity short/medium range Short-Take-Off-and-Land (STOL) transport that would provide the higher standards of comfort to be found in much larger airliners. Designated DHC-7, and later named Dash-7, the first of two pre-production aircraft (C-GNBX-X) made its maiden flight on 27 March 1975. The first production aircraft (C-GNBX-X) was flown on 20 May 1977 and about 47 are in service still today. Package includes three models, custom panel and gauges, custom sounds, two Flight Model options, and seven liveries with more available for separate downloads. By Milton Shupe, Scott Thomas, Mike Kelly, Bernt Stolle, Tom Falley, and sounds by Nigel Richards. Final beta testing by members of Sim-Outhouse.

Man, I'm freak'n out right now over how cool this is!! I've been looking for this kind of feature for some time to add as an addition to my FSX experience.
I rightly have to say the developer NAILED IT! Thank You so much for this amazing add on. Without an glitches or hiccups.
I haven't even begun to play it yet as I felt a true need to write this review first, before spending countless hours in the air with this great new mod.
Just to let everybody know, yeah, I'm totally happy and you will be too. Add this to your collection and you will understand. Take care all and fly safe!
This is insane its very very perfect flight model and very realistic.
It' s a very great plane. If you want to fly a extremely crazy and detailed plane then download this !!
Amazing addon since it is completely free. does what it says on the packet
I've been lookind eveywhere for AirGreenland (formerly Grønlandsfly) skins. Thank you.
It is good, but cant run it with DirectX 10 without losing textures.
Looks great, thanks!
