description=FS2004 DeHavilland DHC8-Q202\nTwin Turboprop Regional Airliner\nVisit the Premeir Aircraft Design Web Site\nwww.flightsimnetwork.com\/premaircraft\nAll Files Copyright 2005.\nThe Q200 is designed for airlines and other operators who require an aircraft the same size as the Q100, but with more power and greater payload. Our engineers met the challenge by mating the Q100 airframe with the more powerful Pratt & Whitney PW123 engines found on the larger Q300 aircraft.
