Canadian North
editThe F28 is still listed as being registered to Canadian North by Transport Canada. Type FTAY in the mark box or Canadian North in the owner name box. There is no listing on the Canadian North website (and that is noted in the article), nor numbers of other aircraft, but it is still under their registration. Also for the B737, the type gets listed on one line with the series, 200 or 300, listed under the variants section, which is the same as other airlines.

- I know that its retired and no longer flying as part of the fleet but to say so without a source is Original research and according to the sources they still own the aircraft. There was a note in their saying that it wasn't listed on the MPE website. This disconnect between the fleet as given by the airline and Transport Canada happens in other articles. See First Air for example, where their own website can't get numbers straight, they still have an A748 registered that isn't flying and is probably in pieces. Bearskin Airlines is another. Also given that you work for them you should be aware or Wikipedia:Conflict of interest. As to the way Air Canada and Westjet are laid out I never looked at them. On the other hand, FAB, Air Creebec, Air Tindi and Buffalo Airways all have the one line for the aircraft type with the variants split on the same line.

I was just thinking what about doing something similar to First Air#Fleet (at the bottom where the DC3 is listed). The MPE box could give the 737 and DHC8 with a line underneath that Transport Canada has a F28 registered to MPE but it is not listed on the company website and is no longer operated. By the way I now feel really stupid. I had forgotten about the "family members" bit which means I also have a COI for that article. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 18:10, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
