The company is based in Nairobi, Kenya operating out of both Wilson Airport and Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.<\/p>\n<p>In 2022, <a href=\"http:\/\/dehavilland.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">De Havilland Canada<\/a> announced the launch of the Quick Change cargo conversion solution for the Dash 8-400 aircraft to address operational needs for a variety of business models.<\/p>\n<p>The QC solution is a revenue expansion model that offers flexibility to convert Dash 8-400 aircraft between all-passenger and all-cargo operations\/configurations, combining two income streams for operators and expanding revenue base opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>The short time required to switch configurations allows operators to adapt to market dynamics and the installation of
