I don’t see why a “rework” is needed. It’s the third or fourth most recent aircraft to be added to iF, and it’s all fine. Great, expansive liveries, good physics. All I see here is a request to expand the fleet, disguised as a “rework”.

Btw air Canada jazz and air Canada express are the same thing.

Qantas has the Dash 8-300

I guess you have Infinite Storage Space on your phone. There is a reason why all aircraft variants are not added to certain families such as the 737 and yes, the Dash-8. Im not a staff member so I don’t know exactly why, but I can assume it’s the increased storage space that the Simulator will take up on a device.

My point is, I agree with the variants being added but it won’t be soon sadly.
