Aviation Memorabilia Newsletter

Since 1995

Doug Keller sent the following in response to our request for more info regarding Air Caravane:

From the excellent reference work by John Blatherwick, “A History of Airlines in Canada”; this book never lets you down and there was some information on this airline. 

Below is an excerpt from the book:

Air Caravane / Air Cardinal: This Montreal based operator flew a fleet of DC-3's and two former Air Canada Viscounts in the 1970's and early 1980's.

The fleet list shows two DC-3's operated by Air Caravane, CF-TAS (pictured in header) and CF-WIC, and two Viscounts operated by Air Cardinal, CF-TGZ and CF-THZ. 

Doug also did an internet search (reference airlinehistory.co.uk) of Air Cardinal and found that  “Air Cardinal was renamed from Air Caravane (founded in 1973) in June 1981”.


Narrowing down the complete fleet list could become quite a task!

One of most frequent photograph contributors, Caz Caswell, sent in the photo below that shows a registration, CF-EEX, not listed above.

As per www.airport-data.com, this C-47 was built in 1942.
