Dash 8-300 (Hydrogen Conv.)

Universal Hydrogen · USA

In a 2025 milestone, a converted Dash 8 regional turboprop flew using modular hydrogen capsules. The fuel cells convert hydrogen into electricity to drive the propellers, emitting only water vapor as exhaust.

Legacy Fact: This flight proved that regional "green" aviation is technically viable for short-haul routes.
