 The skies over the city are about to come alive
with the hearty rumble and roar of the L10A Electra's twin 450 horsepower Pratt &
Whitney Wasp Jr. engines. This completely refurbished 1937 Lockheed aircraft has been part
of Air Canada's history since the company started flying over 60 years ago.
This vintage "sports car" of the skies with its sleek lines, bright and
shiny brushed aluminum body, and jaunty art deco appearance appeals to aircraft
aficionados and anyone wishing to experience and relive the romance and nostalgia of a
bygone era.
Today, the L10A is provided to employee "Dreams Take Flight" volunteer groups across the country, and is an integral part of the year long fundraising efforts that help make the dream of a wondrous, fun filled day in Disneyland a reality for hundreds of underprivileged, seriously ill, or physically and mentally challenged children.
