G'day

My first commercial ride was on a Trans-Canada Airlines Vanguard from Nisku (Edmonton International Airport) to Saskatoon.

Here in North Bay when the city was being served by Air Canada Viscounts in the latter 1960's, the aircraft would come in on a Saturday and R.O.N. here. On Sunday morning prior to resuming their sked, they offered a 30 minute sight-seeing flight. It was five bucks a seat.

Cheers...Chris
