UK Firm Wins Jigs Contract for ‘Heron’ Variant

Abstract

POSSIBLY the greatest tribute ever paid to the highly successful de Havilland Heron was embodied in the decision by Saunders Aircraft Ltd of Manitoba, Canada to build an enlarged and improved version of the old de Havilland model. The New Model, the Saunders ST‐28, has already flown as a pre‐production model and is expected to be available commercially towards the end of the year. Production is expected to rise to three aircraft per month by 1977.
