Italo Zalloni has sent us this photo with the title CP Air Eastern Region 1972 Sales Achievement Award.

After the cash registers had been emptied and the figures credited a significant chapter in CP Air's 1972 success book could be credited to the airline's Eastern Canada Regional Sales and Customer Service staffs.

Recognition of these achievements was in the form of award certificates presented by W. D. Gordon, Director of Sales, North America. Team photo of the Eastern Canada Quota Champs shows:

The photos of the flight attendant insignias submitted by Jean Downie in NetLetter #1385 has prompted Doug Seagrim to send us this information and photo. 

The latest edition showed some flight attendant pins from the 1960’s. Thought you might be interested in these which I sent to Canada’s Aviation Hall of Fame.
