4X-AHA "Eilat" was the 1st DHC- 7 delivered new to Arkia on September 29, 1981. Two more new built airframes followed shortly afterwards, with 4X-AHB (c/n 64) and 4X-AHC (c/n 82) joining Arkia's fleet in October 1981 and May 1982 respectively. Ten additional Dash 7's (registered 4X-AHD through 4X-AHM) were bought or leased 2nd hand, the last two entereing service with Arkia in June of 1996. By early 2011, the one's not having already been sold earlier were either broken up in SDV or TLV, except 4X-AHG (c/n 33), which was sold to Canada in airworthy condition as C-GNUY.
