The Dornier 328, a pioneering 30-seat regional turboprop airliner that bridged the gap between commuter aircraft and larger regional jets, first flew on December 6, 1991. This low-wing twin-engine aircraft featured Pratt & Whitney Canada PW119 turboprops and could accommodate up to 32 passengers in standard configuration. Manufactured by Dornier Luftfahrt GmbH in Oberpfaffenhofen, Germany, the 328 represented a significant advancement in quiet, high-speed regional aviation during the early 1990s.
