The Boeing 737 is a popular narrow-body aircraft that is widely used throughout the world and has been in production since 1967. The most recent version of this model is the 737 MAX, which is the latest in a long line of 737 aircraft. Despite the availability of brand-new jets with the latest avionics and engine technology, not all airlines have upgraded just yet. Airliners are extremely expensive, and sometimes it makes sense to keep older airframes flying. That is true of at least one carrier in Canada — Nolinor Aviation.
Most people, even in Canada, are probably not familiar with this carrier. That is because it specializes in chartered flights and is capable of carrying passengers or cargo, including petroleum, to many destinations in North America and Europe. A good portion of the work advertised by Nolinor Aviation is to remote destinations, particularly in the north of Canada where environmental conditions tend to be difficult and extreme. Having the ability to rapidly change the type of payload and carry it to cold and icy locales is the primary reason Nolinor still flies its old Boeing 737-200 planes.
Nolinor Aviation currently flies the two oldest 737-200 airframes in use, one of which was produced in 1974 and the other in 1975. Until a better-suited aircraft comes along and makes logical business sense for the carrier, these planes will likely continue to fly for the foreseeable future.
