New sub-base to be opened in Edmonton
In a pivotal development in its 30 years of operation, Nolinor Aviation will establish a new secondary base in Edmonton, Alberta, which will come on stream in June. This strategic move is set to redefine air transport within Canada’s mining sector, the carrier said.
The expansion is specifically designed to enhance operational reach in Western Canada and provide direct, efficient service to the mining projects in Nunavut. Central to this initiative is the deployment of a Boeing 737-200 at the Edmonton base, an aircraft celebrated for its versatility.
The Boeing 737-200 is the only model certified by Boeing for gravel runway operations, offering unmatched flexibility in payload capacity and featuring an expanded cargo door to accommodate a broad spectrum of cargo sizes. (cj)
