Air Canada - Media Advisory
OTTAWA, Sept. 25 /CNW/ - Media are invited to attend a ceremony to
commemorate Air Canada's donation of a vintage 1960s Douglas DC-9 aircraft to
the Canada Aviation Museum in Ottawa.
A truly unique chapter in Canadian Aviation history drew to a close when
Air Canada retired its DC-9 fleet earlier this year. Air Canada added the DC-9
to its fleet in 1966 and with its retirement, said goodbye to the workhorse of
the airline. The DC-9 changed the nature of air transportation in Canada and
represented for most Canadians, their first experience of jet travel. Thanks
to its consistently high performance in the areas reliability and safety, the
DC-9 introduced faster, quieter, more reliable service than had ever been seen
before in Canada.
Media are invited to attend the ceremony as well as tour the aircraft and
interview longstanding DC-9 pilots. Footage of the aircraft in beta format is
also available.
DATE: Thursday, September 26
TIME: 11:00 a.m.
LOCATION: Canada Aviation Museum
