MONTREAL — ********** is proudly honouring its history today – all the way back to the time of Trans-Canada Air Lines.

The aircraft is **********’s newest Airbus A220.
**********, as Canada’s national carrier, got its start as TCA in 1936. Its first transcontinental flights took off in 1938. TCA was renamed ********** in 1965.
Here’s a video posted on **********’s social media channels showing the A220 getting its new (old) look…
