Certainly not the most aesthetic aircraft, but she was a pleasure to fly. Perhaps the most responsive planes I have flown owing to the anhedral and highly effecient wing. Made for effortless and clean aileron and barrel rolls. Great video for showcasing the Do228's aerobatic prowess!
The Do-228 is being build by Ruag now. Yes, the 228 is a great plane with a fantastic lineage, and will once again provide excellent service. I'm building a website right now for a Paragon Aircraft Corp, who has exclusive sales rights for Africa and most of Europe. Paragon is not yet fully up and running yet, but will be full on before 2010 ends.
Thanks heimirab putting this video into Youtube, I'm working at the Do 228-212 New Generation yet and I'm very proud about the fact that this great plane will be built again..................
Really it is going to be produced again?? this is a great news!!! I was in Dornier HQ in Oberpfaffenhoffen, Germany, in 2003 and they told me that the company failed. Who is it going to build it now?
Hello former collegue, I was at Dornier too since they failed. I work in OP since 2007 again. Special VIP Equipment for 328 and since August this year we build the incredible 228 again at RUAG, the type certificate holder of the 228.
yes she is.. =D considered to be one of the most versatile aircrafts ever.. used from the US coast guard to meteorolocial tropical storms studies, to almost every known operating configuration.. a brilliant craft in deed! regards
I am a solid Twin Otter fan, and it and the Dornier are the only two planes allowed at Lukla, Nepal airport. I'm starting to gravitate towards the Dornier...Need to get a GOOD copy of one for my Flight Simulator.
I do recognize the display as it has been flown by my friend and former colleague Cpt Willy Schmidt from Germany. Many thanks for this enjoyable Video!
Great plane, I see, but the DO-228 cant beat the DO-28A...I could land the thing backward in a stiff breeze! Is there any still flying?

@ThePiratadosacores This was clearly at an airshow. So the cameraman wasnt talking. So it's best if you shut up.

Very Nice video, it make me believe that i can do that tomorrow on my dornier 228 after take-off at St BARTH.
I was almost sure that it was possible, feeling its agility.
