About de Havilland Canada DHC-2 Beaver
de Havilland Canada DHC-2 Beaver Aircraft - photo wallpapers; Megawallpapers.org : The de Havilland Canada DHC-2 Beaver is one of the most famous bush planes in the world. After World War II, de Havilland Canada was looking to produce a plane suited to operations in the extremes of the Canadian north. The Beaver has become a symbol of the Canadian north, and has since
found use as a bush plane all over the world; the international ICAO designation for flight plans is DHC2. The type is used for aerial application; (crop dusting and aerial topdressing), and has been widely used by armed forces as a utility aircraft; the U.S. Army Air Corps purchased several hundred. Nine DHC-2s are still in service with the US Air Force Auxiliary (Civil Air Patrol) for search and rescue. A Royal New Zealand Air Force Beaver supported Sir Edmund Hillary's expedition to the South Pole. Over 1,600 Beavers were produced. After extensive consultation with bush pilots, they began production of the Beaver —a reliable, single-engine monoplane that could be easily fitted with wheels, skis, or floats.
The Beaver was designed for flight in rugged and remote areas of the
world. Because it often flies to remote locations (that often are in
cold climates) its oil reservoir filling spout is located in the
cockpit itself and the oil can be refilled while the aircraft is in
flight. The first flight of the DHC Beaver was 16 August 1947, with the first production aircraft being delivered in April 1948. The plane was an immediate success within the Canadian aviation community. de Havilland hired veteran bush pilot Punch Dickins as their Director of Sales and when production finally ceased in 1967, 1,657 DHC-2 Beavers had been built.Country of origin: Canada
