Details

The De Havilland Canada DHC-2 Beaver AL is one of the most respected utility aircraft ever built, famed for its rugged reliability and outstanding short take-off and landing (STOL) performance.

Originally introduced in the late 1940s, the Beaver quickly became the aircraft of choice for operations in remote and challenging environments, from dense forests to frozen tundra.

The “AL” designation typically refers to military or specific operator variants, many of which were adapted for reconnaissance, liaison, and transport duties.

Thanks to its powerful radial engine and high-lift wing design, the Beaver can operate from extremely short and unprepared strips, as well as from water when fitted with floats or from snow using skis.

Its simple but durable construction made it ideal for demanding roles, including supply missions, casualty evacuation, and survey work.

The spacious cabin could carry passengers or cargo with ease, while its excellent low-speed handling gave pilots exceptional control in tight or hazardous conditions.

Still widely used today in both civilian and military roles, the Beaver remains a true workhorse of aviation.

For modellers, the DHC-2 Beaver AL offers a versatile and characterful subject, with a wide range of colour schemes and configurations that reflect its long and varied service history.
