  • HISTORY ASPECTS:
  • The De Havilland DHC-6-200, registered as N930MA, has a storied history as part of the Eastern Air Lines fleet under the Metro Express brand. This twin-engine turboprop aircraft was a workhorse in the 1980s, serving as a critical link in regional air travel within the United States. With its short takeoff and landing (STOL) capabilities and robust design, the DHC-6-200 was the ideal choice for regional routes, particularly at airports with shorter runways. The aircraft's versatility and reliability made it an essential component of Eastern Air Lines' strategy to enhance regional connectivity.
  • The De Havilland DHC-6-200 was powered by twin Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-27 turboprop engines, each producing approximately 620 shaft horsepower. This robust power plant enabled the aircraft to achieve a maximum takeoff weight (MTOW) of around 11,579 pounds (5,250 kilograms). Cruising at a speed of approximately 170 knots (196 mph or 315 km/h), the DHC-6-200 could cover distances of up to 700 nautical miles, making it exceptionally well-suited for regional routes. Its standard passenger configuration accommodated up to 19 travelers, providing a comfortable and efficient means of transportation for passengers in smaller communities.
  • N930MA's history with Eastern Air Lines - Metro Express underscores its pivotal role in extending the reach of regional air travel. Its rugged construction and STOL capabilities allowed it to operate from airports with limited infrastructure, making air travel accessible to passengers in underserved areas. The DHC-6-200 earned a reputation for its dependability, adaptability, and its ability to offer a comfortable and efficient travel experience to passengers in smaller communities.
  • This finely detailed replica captures the essence of the aircraft, from its robust design to the iconic livery. For those who appreciate the significance of the DHC-6-200 in advancing regional air travel and Eastern Air Lines - Metro Express' dedication to serving smaller communities, this 1:200 scale model is an essential addition to any collection. Display it with pride and celebrate the versatility, reliability, and the legacy of regional aviation that Eastern Air Lines - Metro Express brought to the world of air travel.
