One of Dornier most successful products, the Dornier 228 incorporates the fuselage cross section of the earlier Do 28 and 128 combined with an all new high technology supercritical wing and TPE331 turboprops. Two fuselage length versions, the 100 and 200, were developed at the same time, with the 100 offering better range, the 200 more payload. The 288 first entered service in 1982.
Composites were used in a number of secondary structure areas on the 228 including upper wing skins, nose and tail. 228 developments include the 228101 with reinforced structure and landing gear for higher weights, the corresponding 228201 version of the 200, the 228202 version built under licence production in India with HAL, and the 228212. The 212 is the last Dornier (now Fairchild Aerospace) production aircraft, its improvements include higher operating weights, structural strengthening and a lower empty weight, improvements to enhance STOL performance and modern avionics. |
