I recall a number of years ago that AC used Central Mountain Air to serve smaller communities such as YYF with a B1900
Do the Fleetmaster's here envision AC utilizing the likes of CMA again as they pare back the DH4 fleet?
25 will undergo refit, there's a non-zero chance the "surplus" fins will simply transfer to PAL and continue operating for Air Canada Express in Eastern Canada. Jazz is likely to disappear from Eastern Canada except for routes to and from YTZ/YYZ.
