Bombardier is the name of the manufacturer. Bombardier build a range of very different aircraft. They specialise is biz jets and commuter airliners - which is a legacy of the fact that Bombardier got into aircraft manufacturing by taking over a number of older plane makers - De Havilland Canada, Canadair, Short Brothers and Lear.
The aircraft that crashed was a Bombardier DHC-8. The "DHC" in the title betrays its ancestry. DHC stands for De Havilland Canada. DHC specialised in short take off and landing designs - going back to the piston engined DHC-4 Caribou
the DHC-5 Buffalo
the DHC-7 Dash Seven
the DHC-8
The family resemblances are obvious.
