Aviation Memorabilia Newsletter

With this issue, we begin the 26th year of publishing 'The NetLetter'. Below is the introduction from the 1st issue published October 12, 1995.

As technology has evolved and "The NetLetter' has become more stylized, we have remained true to the original concept and it has always been distributed free to our subscribers. 

We wish to thank you all for allowing us to continue our communication. 

NetLetter #001 issue,  October 12, 1995.

This communication is an attempt by two Pionairs, Vesta Stevenson and Terry Baker to establish a 'NetLetter' of interest to, principally, Pionairs who have email addresses.

As Pionairs, our only contact for information is through the company newsletter- Horizons - and the 1-800 number for CIC daily info, which seems to refer us to various CIC pages for which we have no access.

The contents of our 'NetLetter' can be anything which is considered of interest to ex Air Canada types, permanent employees and relatives.

Subjects can be information on good accommodations, inexpensive trips or, maybe, someone you may have lost contact with.

This 'NetLetter' is not sponsored by the executive of Air Canada Pionairs, but is intended to make use of the new technology to dispense information which may be of interest.

We welcome comments and information - non controversial - which can be included in subsequent 'NetLetters', but NOT advertising. 

We have welcomed 178 new subscribers so far in 2021.

We wish to thank everyone for your support of our efforts.

Back issues of The NetLetter are available in both the original newsletter format and downloadable PDF format.

We invite you to visit our website at www.thenetletter.net/netletters to view our archives.

Restoration and posting of archive issues is an ongoing project. We hope to post every issue back to the beginning in 1995.

We always welcome feedback about Air Canada (including Jazz and Rouge) from our subscribers who wish to share current events, memories and photographs.

Particularly if you have stories to share from one of the legacy airlines: Trans-Canada Air Lines, Canadian Airlines, CP Air, Pacific Western, Eastern Provincial, Wardair, Nordair, Transair, Air BC, Time Air, Quebecair, Calm Air, NWT Air, Air Alliance, Air Nova, Air Ontario, Air Georgian and all other Canadian based airlines that once graced the Canadian skies.

We will try to post your comments in the next issue but, if not, we will publish it as soon as we can.

Thanks!
