Charter Madness.

During the federal election last fall of 1993, Canadian Airlines provided charter service to the Liberal Party, which eventually was elected to a majority government.

For 47 days a hardy crew of Canadian Airlines employees transported Liberal leader Jean Chretien, his political staff and an entourage of media reporters.

Since they covered 30,000 miles - 60 stops in 32 cities, the crew took it upon themselves to regularly do a few wacky things to relieve the day-to-day tensions of the campaign trail.

On Halloween, for example for a flight from Thunder Bay to Yellowknife, the entire crew dressed up in zany costumes and served pizza.

The charter crew included, from the left: CSD Carlos Furthado, First Officer Eric David, Flight Attendant Joanne Gauthier, Captain John Burridge, Airports Flight Coordinator Knut Ohm, Flight Attendants Carolyne Rodgrigues and Linda Frenette and the scary masked Flight Engineer Joe Desouza.
