Last March, 2022, the Boeing 737-229C registered C-GNRD of Nolinor came in for maintenance at Montreal Saint-Hubert (YHU). Ordinarily, this B-737 equipped with a cargo door, is operated from Yellowknife, Northwest Territories. The photo below left is before leaving Saint-Hubert on March 20, 2022 at the end of maintenance work. On the right, the same Boeing 737-229C in its original Sabena livery (registration OO-SDR) photographed at Geneva, Switzerland on July 26, 1979. It's been more than 43 years that this valiant B-737 has provided good and loyal service! Photos by Pierre Gillard.

CRJ is 30 years old! It was on May 10, 1991 at 9.45 a.m. that the first 50-seat Canadair Regional Jet (CRJ) took off from Montreal's Dorval Airport four days after the official rollout before 1,800 employees and guests. Test pilots Doug Adkins and Don Stephen flew the aircraft (serial #7001, C-FCRJ) to an altitude of 12,000 feet and a top speed of 220 knots. The 1 hour 25 minutes flight ended when the aircraft landed at Canadair’s long-term home at Cartierville Airport, not at Dorval where a new CRJ factory had been constructed.
