De Havilland Canada's Dash 8-400 Gets Starlink In-Flight Internet
De Havilland Aircraft of Canada Limited (De Havilland Canada) has announced an exciting new feature for its Dash 8-400 aircraft. The company has partnered with Starlink to offer in-flight internet access, marking the first time this service will be available on a De Havilland Canada aircraft.
