Fairchild Dornier

Vehicle and Equipment Manufacturers

Fairchild Dornier was a German-American aircraft manufacturer based at Oberpfaffenhofen near Munich and at San Antonio, Texas. It came into being in 1996, when Fairchild Aerospace took over Dornier Luftfahrt GmbH from Daimler-Benz Aerospace. During its short life the company built the Dornier 328 family of regional aircraft and developed the 728 regional jet programme. It also ran maintenance centres in Germany and Texas and supplied modules and components to Airbus. From 1999 it belonged to the Allianz group and the investment firm Clayton, Dubilier and Rice. The aviation crisis that followed the attacks of September 2001 pushed it into insolvency, and the company was wound up during 2002.
