Plane Chains Air Canda DC-9 - Ice White

C-FTLT line number 278 was built in 1968 and delivered to Air Canada as FIN 719. In 2002, she was retired after 34 years of service with the airline. Upon retirment she was donated to Confederation College in Thunder Bay to serve as a trainer for Aviation students. The 1998 livery was covered with thick sticker, and the aircraft was eventually painted into an unoriginal Air Canada scheme for a film production. In 2022 she was scrapped.
