Last week, Lynx Air took delivery of their fourth 737 MAX, except that much like Flair’s Air Europa ones, it’s not quite in the right livery.
This was a plane originally destined for Norwegian, and it looks like there wasn’t enough time to fully paint it before it was delivered. At the very least, the Norwegian titles have been painted over and only the basic livery remains.
It looks like Lynx needed the plane urgently too, since it entered service almost right away, and I managed to film a few clips of on its first few revenue flights in Calgary. Enjoy the video!

![Why Do Hawker Siddeley HS 748s Still Fly in Canada?
The Hawker Siddeley HS 748 is a British turboprop airliner developed in the 1950s.
From the outset, the HS 748 - sometimes called the “Hawker” - was envisioned as a Douglas DC-3 replacement, able to carry between 40 and 48 passengers.
Of course, as with many rare airplanes featured on this channel over the years, a few of them are still flying in Canada!
