McDonnell Douglas DC-8-61, registered C-GNDA, serial number 45902, was delivered new to Trans International Airlines as N8961T in 1967 before later joining Nordair's fleet under its Canadian registration. Nordair operated the stretched DC-8-61 to support longer-range and higher-capacity routes complementing the airline's shorter-haul FH-227 turboprop network across northern Canada. As part of this fleet, C-GNDA supported Nordair's expansion into longer domestic and international charter routes before the airline's eventual 1987 merger into Canadian Airlines International, which absorbed Nordair's fleet and route network.
Designed to compete with the Boeing 707, the DC-8 was first flown on May 30th, 1958. © Copyright 2003-2026 The Flying Mule, Inc.
