Back at the end of May, German leisure airline Condor restarted flights to Calgary after an almost 5-year absence. This time around though, they're using their new Airbus A330-900neos, painted in their very eye-catching new livery!
Condor flies these A330neos between Calgary and Frankfurt twice a week and will serve the route until the middle of September. That's in addition to 12 weekly flights on Discover, Lufthansa Group's competitor to Condor, and b ecause of that, we actually have three daily flights to Frankfurt on some days of the week.
It's nice to see Condor back here, as something different and adding a bit of extra colour to the lineup at YYC. The livery has actually grown on me a lot since it first came out.
I was unfortunately not here for their first flight back, but filmed these couple of flights over the past month or so. Enjoy the video!

![Why This Air Canada DC-9 Existed in 2022
Over the past century, commercial aviation has shaped Canada into the country that it is today, and often times, pieces of that history can be found in what might seem like the most unlikely of places.
On the northwest shore of Lake Superior, in Thunder Bay, Ontario, is exactly that - this former Air Canada Douglas DC-9!
With many thanks to Thomas Skoropad Wild Blue Photography for his permission to use those photos of TLTs final arrival into Thunder Bay from 2003.

![Air Inuit 737-200 GRAVEL RUNWAY OPERATIONS in Northern Quebec! [4K]
The northern village of Puvirnituq is one of the largest settlements in Quebecs Nunavik region, and sits just above the 60th parallel.
Its home to an airport with a 6,000+ foot runway, making it one of the few airports in the region able to accommodate a 737. That runway though is made of gravel, and so only the 737-200s with a gravel kit can actually use it.
With direct scheduled flights to Montreal, that makes Puvirnituq one of the more relatively accessible places to see a 737-200 in its element.
I found myself there back in April on my way home from Kuujjuaq, and managed to capture one of Air Inuits 737-200s operating an all-cargo flight to and from Montreal. Enjoy this gravel runway action!
