✈️ 𝟰𝟱𝘁𝗵 𝗔𝗻𝗻𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗗𝗼𝟮𝟮𝟴’𝘀 𝗙𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗙𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁! ✈️ March 28, 1981, was a significant day for the aviation industry in Germany. On that day, the Do228-100 made its first flight in #Oberpfaffenhofen. It marked the beginning of a success story. German #aviation certification followed later that same year, before the first aircraft was delivered to a customer in 1982. Today, 45 years later, our new #Do228NXT is on the verge of reaching the same milestone: Production is in its final stages and the first flight and official world premiere at the Roll-Out are just around the corner.
