Product Description

FROM AIR CANADA ARCHIVES:
By the early 1950s, the world’s airline had established themselves as a new and alternate mode of transport, but was still reserved for the wealthy and business traveller, ad the medium has still far from being accepted as a mass form of transit. Canada’s flag carrier Trans-Canada Air Lines was spreading its wings overseas as well as closer to home, and during the 1950s a number of films were produced by the airline to educate and win more business from the average Canadian family, and are presented on this DVD.
